on beauty, taste, culture, politics and the lived experience thereof

A bedroom, abandoned on the last day of school. Flags on the wall, postcards of places visited over a long weekend, and old tickets from cinema outings.

The sketch of a river before the blue is painted in, old sheet music from concerts where a friend played the cello. Scratches on the walls from stuff stuck on, taken off.
