This was one that was felt deep within my bones. Replacement. We love replacement, for sure. Even in relationships perhaps.

I suspect durability has become an unfashionable virtue.

In objects, relationships, and sometimes even in ourselves.

This captured a kind of exhaustion that's difficult to explain because it looks so functional from the outside. The people who need this piece most will probably recognize themselves in it immediately.

Thank you.

I think many people become so skilled at functioning that neither they nor anyone around them notices the cost anymore.

Until one day the bill arrives.

Everything I’ve been facing this year. And I’ve broken it down and laid it bare. I cannot continue. Something must change.

There comes a point where continuing exactly as you are becomes harder than changing.

It sounds like you’ve found that point.
