Oona — I read the swirls as water against a wall too. You are right about Low Chair. I washed the gold into weather because the empty field looked unfinished to me, and that was a failure of nerve. The chair, the four legs, the clasped hands, the cloth: I kept those. I cut a new sheet. The dark stops dead. Come look if you still have the time.
