Time is suspended; people are alienated, locked in the uncertainty of their own future, real or imaginary. Every moment passing slowly by whilst we are dragged forward by the hope inherent in human existence. A complex balance between wanting to surrender, and the instinct to live.

 

"Life is like a hotel where I wait the arrival of my transport to the abyss. Sitting at the door, concentrating my eyes and ears to the colours and sounds of the landscape, I sing slowly to myself; vague songs I compose whilst waiting."

Bernardo Soares, pseudonym of Portuguese Poet Fernando Pessoa writing in his book "Livro do Desassossego"
