This illustration shows a pair of sticks embedded in the ground in a sunlit forest, left behind since their last game of pretend and never picked up again. The shadows cast appear as the swords that they once were, and the trees in the foreground frame the composition like the windows of a great cathedral.

“do you remember when we used to play here as children?we were knights with swords in hand, conquering the world.we were happy. don’t you remember?i think maybe you’ve forgotten. i think maybe i’ve forgotten too.”
