Description

"Every migrant knows in his heart of hearts that it is impossible to return. Even if he is physically able to return, he does not truly return, because he himself has been so deeply changed by his emigration. It is equally impossible to return to that historical state in which every village was the center of the world...The one hope of recreating a center now is to make it the entire earth. Only worldwide solidarity can transcend modern homelessness.

Fraternity is too easy a term; forgetting Cain and Abel, it somehow promises that all problems can be soluble. In reality many are insoluble - hence the never-ending need for solidarity."

- John Berger, in his timeless gem written decades ago, "And our faces, my heart, as brief as photos".

The swirls are like offshoots, like DNA that makes up time. It's detail and complexity and the sharpness of this drawing make it look so deep.
