internal landscape - care home

Conversational portraits with the care home residents.

beyond the shell:

When I returned home I took the person I met much further in. Whilst studying their portraits, I felt their character again, freeze framed conversations and interactions really embellished very alive needs, mind and soul, reaching readily past the exterior.

Tuning into my own ageing process, projecting forward, will others still see, communicate interact with my needs, mind soul and person; when sometimes on the surface seemingly locked in, or on a small seemingly tight locked up loop; will I be given triggers to be reminded to release.

beyond the shell:

the person in
the studied portrait
the framed conversations
interactions seen

the person
the mind
the soul
the need

so into my own
so projecting forward
so others see
interactions meet

the person
the mind
the soul
the need

seemingly locked up
seemingly tight looped
seemingly locked in
given triggers released
