and we learn something

and we learn something
Cut-paper collage. Woman with yellow from a painting by Noah Davis. Words from an artwork by L. Pope. Fossil photographed by Giraud Foster & Norman Barker. It's Sphenophyllum, a once-ubiquitous creeping plant, related to horsetails, that went extinct shortly after the Carboniferous period.

This collage was inspired by this time when we go everywhere with masks on, so our facial expressions come only through our eyes. I'm not sure what we're learning, but maybe it includes the fact that we need closeness, we need each other's faces, hands & bodies, more than we knew we did.

Indeed we do. Although personally, being exempt from masquerading, courtesy of my crappy lungs, I exercise my facial muscles as much as ever. Especially in the manic grin department. :-)

Yes, the eyes are the uncanny focus. My optician had to open my eye with her thumb and forefinger to shine a light inside them. I was sure this much have breached some COVID guidelines, but I enjoyed it, feeling like Dali’s propped up head in his painting “Paranoia and War”.
Well, I’ve learned something there. And I got an excellent new pair of glasses.
