UNDERPASS SANCTUARY two lovers meet beneath the ship canal bridge. a neutral gathering place: surrounded by speed & sound, everything seems muted in this underbelly world.
time moves differently here: relics of peoples’ pasts both strewn and sanctified. both tacitly know why they have come: this is the end. this time unlike others, they come desperate. too many times have each felt cheated and vulnerable, and the weight of their pain is crushing their souls. they stand face to face at arm’s length, careful not to get too close, careful to heed their words. in this muffled quietness amid the chaos, two lovers meet to leave free of all burdens
