A small girl aims a toy gun, casting a long mercurial shadow. A child with an empty wheelbarrow feels the weight of an invisible load. A skeletal creature carries a burning ember in its hand. Inherited responsibilities, burdens unseen but profoundly felt. Brief moments of a life, essentials in a bag, the artist carries from port to port.
