This one took so long,have been busy with school🙃

Perfect textual rendering of thresholds and overturns, sends a boy awash into fugues, tripping on smooth ground as in The Sacrifice.

The workings of colour and light are catalysed only by rhythm. You cannot stop to measure the pace of flickering, dizzied even though there is no movement at all, only the everfading palimpsest of images
