About the work

Someone must have let this balloon go. There is no one else out here. It is a child’s red balloon, still full of air, tethered to a stone by a white string. The stone is one of hundreds like it, dark and unassuming. It has been tied with a knot that will hold through the wind, a careful knot, like it was meant to wait for someone in particular to find it.
