    Kafka, I am always in awe of how profoundly and deeply your work captures the essence of art itself … so often a thankless realm of naked understanding. And so perhaps this is a fine and natural truth, always living and dying like madness and laughter.

  • kafka replied

    CC my old friend! thank you once again for your kind and thoughtful comment – maybe that fluid cycle between the two states is what draws me to waves and the sea – I go off on tangents every now and then but usually find myself back in front of a wave at some point!
    hope you are well – keep connected!
