Fallow is the necessary pause before return- the moment we step back in order to restore what has been overextended.
The corduroy ridges hold the memory of effort, of ground once worked and now released. The hand stitching is intentionally visible and unfinished, resisting resolution. It becomes a marker of restraint, reflecting a state that is not complete because it is still becoming.
Like self, it speaks to cycles of giving and depletion. We must pause, recover, and soften before we can give again. In its openness and lack of closure, the work holds that quiet truth: restoration is not absence of action, but its preparation
