Photo

This is a small section of the first photograph on yesterday's post of people waiting outside the NGV International. I've placed some text underneath it by way of explaining the way I view the scene of the mother on her iphone and her daughter next to her.

 

The child, with eyes closed
has acquiesced to the fact

that her mother’s thoughts are elsewhere.
Each in their own private space.
One contemplates a message,
the other nestles softly into the primary world

of her mother’s flesh.
