Ai Wei Wei’s Blue and White Porcelain Sculpture – Princeton University Art Museum
She sits pestle and mortar between her thighs, protective, soles of feet in butterfly pounding, seeds, herbs, plant matter grinding steadily scraping into powder
The sound echoes from the blue & white porcelain cube my eyes tethered a pearl string forms beading through each maternal lifetime
tying us as one
Her spine, lupine swaying as if the wind blew far west for decades upon decades
waiting
she continues listening for me her pale hands wrapped in rings of jade focus
