Muscles contract, eyes close, no internal monologue just icons. They swirl and distort to the point where their original meanings submit to new translations. In time, this whirlwind subsides, and the icons ground themselves to a materiality. They graft to marble sculptures like fossilised foliage. Each stone relic is enlivened or decayed by their decoration.
