image ids under cut:

image 1: a quote from Ovid that reads: "And Orpheus received her, but one term was set: he must not, till he passed Avernus, turn back his gaze, or the gift would be in vain."

image 2: excerpt from the script of the film Spirited Away that reads: "Haku: But I can't go any farther. Just go back the way you came, you'll be fine. [highlighted] But you have to promise not to look back, not until you've passed through the tunnel."

image 3: a drawing, labeled in all-caps handwriting "a venn diagram of love vs. grief:". the drawing is a single circle.

image 4: an excerpt, highlighted and italicized, from Jenny Diski that reads: "People don't understand about repetition, do they? How it is at the heart (thump, thump, thump) of obsession; at the erotic centre (drip, drip, drip) of desire. You do, of course. Repetition is insatiability spelt sideways."

image 5: a quote from Franz Wright reading, "And let me ask you this: the dead, where aren't they?"

image 6: a quote from Adrianne Kalfopoulou in red text, reading, "Grief will keep you reaching back / for what is not there"

image 7: an excerpt from Jon Ware that reads, "Here's my question. If the ghost wants nothing more than to be witnessed, why would it appear behind you, not in front of you? The only answer I can think of is this: [underlined] it appears behind you because it already knows, to an absolute certainty, that you will have no choice but to look back."

image 8: a quote from Kazimierz Wierzyński that reads: "I understood the true fate of Orpheus, that [highlighted] love is a constant terror of loss."

image 9: a screenshot of a tumblr ask from an anonymous user who says, "What's the point?" user prisonhannibal responds, "of what? it's love though".

image 10: two lines from aeschylus reading, "Orestes: This was always going to happen. She's been dead since the beginning."

image 11: an excerpt from Ocean Vuong that reads, "Your absence has gone through me // Like thread through a needle. / Everything I do is stitched with its color."

Then I understood the true fate of Orpheus, that love is a constant terror of loss." - Kazimierz Wierzyński

Algunos estudios nuevos de color, luz y sombra inspirados en cuadros, probando nuevas formas de trabajar los tonos y utilizando otros pinceles para que tengan más textura. La idea era también explorar emociones como el miedo, dolor y tristeza en la mirada.

Mówi się – double talk, Śni się – double dreams, Żyje się – double life, Ale skacze się z okna tylko raz.

Usta twoje całując

Usta twoje się snują, usta twe się wodzą, Jak dwa ptaki różowe, po mnie lekko chodzą, Jak dwa światła natchnione, oczu dotykają, Usta twe mnie zabrały, usta twe mnie mają.

Jak wyznania wstydliwe, jak szepty szalone, Powtarzam w ustach twoje usta niezliczone, Od uśmiechu w kącikach do smaku języka - Usta twoje całują i świat cały znika.

Kazimierz Wierzyński
