The pandemic experience only made the feelings of loss and loneliness develop quicker and deeper but also provided the space to lean into the loss and work through it thoroughly without the opportunity for distraction to take it's place.

The pathway is surrounded by walls and is partially covered by a roof that resembles the wavy panels of a tin roof. The walls and floor are a light gray with faint blue and red undertones. The areas where the roof covers the path are reflected black onto the ground, and the areas where there is no roof show the lightness of the ground. As the path continues into the distance, it turns white with outside light.
