Afterwater
The breath of the sublime whispers in our ear. Our surroundings live off the flow of water (which we are). The touch (of the greenery) absorbs (us). We enter a universe of multi-sensory stimuli with Afterwater, by Dane Komljen. An essay on expanded triangularization with human relationships, environmental relationships, and temporal relationships. In different chapters and registers, which emerge naturally in the kinematic current, we drift through different contexts, different elements, different expressions. A proposal for a deep dive into the lake of details, a gentle and continuous rubbing of the textures of reality, a moment of (re)connection with others (in all their immensity) and with ourselves - of those who, in this plurality of possibilities of existence, also eat earth, are also with earth, are also earth.
