THE WORK
A long arched bridge crosses luminous water, its lamps still lit in the early haze. One figure walks the span alone, heading toward the far end, where the bridge itself dissolves into rose and violet light, its destination unpainted, unknown. Birds pass overhead. The arches drop soft reflections into the calm below, and the whole crossing glows with the colors of a day not yet decided.
THE INSPIRATION
The far end of the bridge is not painted, it dissolves into light before it arrives. And still the figure walks.
That is what crossing takes: you cannot see the other shore, and you go anyway.
