CREPUSCULE
It is human nature to desire to belong, while still moving through spatial borders on a personal and public level. I believe there is solidarity in fear and darkness within everyone. We huddle in the darkness due to fear, and we stick together for the fear of being vulnerable. We are quite literally scared of ourselves. Attempting to replace self and home is applicable to life outside the realm of deliberate artistic expression because we are constantly changing our environments to better suit the way we grow and live. Growing is inevitable, and the necessity to let ourselves connect and be seen means acknowledging the lightness and darkness within. I rationalize my thoughts in relation to my culture and others by addressing personal anxieties and tensions first. There is a continuous necessity to understand personal darknesses before showing empathy toward others.
