Pale yellow light seeps through this other worldly picture as a lobster-esque figure crawls in from the upper right-hand corner, with limbs that seem to stroll across a rocky quagmire. Is this underwater or above? Is this creature ancient or contemporary? Or is this an abstract version of the artist’s heart, resonating with the act of walking alone in the world with no thought or ideation beyond the now and the next few minutes directly before her.
