We often think of stone as static, unyielding, and unchanging. It is, and it is not. Over time stone will erode, change shape, reveal hidden secrets, and even transform into entirely new structures. None of these changes happen spontaneously; they are the result of external forces interacting with each rock. Heat, pressure, gravity, wind, and water will all leave their impact on stone; and no one piece will undergo the same journey as another. In this way, people are a lot like rocks. We are constantly interacting with each other, abrading, smoothing, and chipping away at one another, with every interaction leaving its own unique mark. "Moving Through the World with Eyes Half Closed" explores the moment before conscious awareness that everyone around us has lives just as complex and intricate as our own. The golden line in each rock highlights one individual's journey through this tapestry of interactions, with each intersecting thread on its own path.
