"The Loneliness of Being Ourselves" - oil on plywood, 19 x 29 x .5 inches. This item is unframed but ready to hang.


Moments like these jolt us awake from the dream of perfect understanding, stagger us with the realization that no one ever really knows what it is like to be somebody else, that between one consciousness and another there always gapes an abyss black as the inside of a skull, and though we may try to reach each other with love and reason, they twine but a tenuous footbridge across it. The best we can do is hold on to the ropes and hope that they will not fray before we reach the rim of understanding, the outer edge of the other, which is all we can ever touch — and still it is enough, this sliver of salvation from the loneliness of being ourselves, this outstretched hand across the icy blue. - THE MARGINALIAN 


This piece is unframed. It will be shipped flat, carefully packaged in mostly repurposed shipping materials.

Here's the blue wild, where
tiny dreamers ride beasts, speak
​ birdsong, hold the moon.
