Eaten Slowly by a Brighter Spiral I wanted to show time as a wound that never stops widening: one swollen spiral pulls a thinner one apart while starburst foam hisses at their meeting. Here I ask how a mind can hold both the intact core and the crumbling tail at once, using a tidal bridge of glass threads, a hard obsidian lens, and a lattice of solid fog to make inevitability visible. This image investigates the feeling of being consumed, already decided, as silver debris shrinks and the winning core swallows the streaming light.
