The Pacific plate tore itself open severing the sea in two. Eventually the tides found weaknesses in the stone and millions of tons compressed into the narrow corridor.

Moving from the spectacle of a moon launch to the quiet perspective of a mountaintop this meditation reflects on while reaching the moon is technologically complex, living together on Earth remains profoundly complex.

From coral reefs to global fuel routes, narrow passages shape more than movement &#8211; they shape how we think. Under strain we tighten within the plane we know.
