ENQUIRE ABOUT THIS WORK


“I used to be a woman who knew how to make things out as I saw them, but I have since committed the pathetic error of thinking. Wanting to understand was one of the worst things to have happened to me. I care too much about the utter darkness, the void of unfulfillment, to receive and eat back the lives that have been tossed forth from the womb to fail, to kiss and bestow them all a second chance. I’m sending my true love back to the bitch that bore you. She is the world-generating spirit who all creatures rise through: space, time, and causality – the shell of the cosmic egg. She is the enticement that budged the self-brooding absolute to the act of creation. All information inside her is systematized around an enigma invisible even in its most private nucleus. I’m handing you a world on fire. I’ve given up on figuring out how to figure things out. Every lure seems to be an expanding vortex. Fear comes from what surpasses me, and I fear myself becomes I’m always ready to suffer. To protect me who persecutes me, I’ll float in emptiness and become air, energetic air, or maybe I’ll be more like an instant of air. Yes, I want to be an instant. Rather than a soul in a body, I’ll be a body in a soul.” - Amy Gillian Wilson, 2021
