Loneliness — silent and unyielding — finds its way into the laminae of our society.The rampant spread of wordlessness seems no more stoppable than the proliferation of AI in the digital undergrowth.


Alongside those sudden, violently felt ruptures caused by departure, by conflict, by death — those events that tear gaping holes into the fabric of our lives — another kind of absence is taking root, now more than ever.

It is the kind of absence that appears, unexpectedly, between self and others, sometimes slipping in quietly and making itself at home, manifesting in shifting and strangely wondrous ways.


We are unversed in facing these stifling voids that have crept into our reality. To suffer loneliness is to carry shame to which few admit or even acknowledge — that estrangement has become the only companion in a friendless home.

Aimlessness has no place anymore. Undefined space, like those formed in the wake of delays, are stripped of their randomness while applications, ever learning, optimize every millimeter of the in-between and information bubbles dictate our distractions. Time is bridged only in haste and as the arena of real encounters is increasingly abandoned.

Unaffected and out of touch, we remain distant from one another.
