Artist notes:

The idea of change is ever-present. Reduce the scale. Look at yourself. You can change something in your life, but it’s usually as a result. I learned a lesson. I gave up a bad habit. New Year’s resolutions. But then I didn’t. We’re supposed to adapt, to conform. No. I wish I had done that. I wish I could do that. I’ll do things differently next time. I might. You should have done that earlier. I wish you were like you used to be. I wish you hadn’t changed.

Little child, you can change the world. Yes, we can work together for that. I don’t want you to change. Stay just how you are, and don’t let anyone change you. For the meantime, let’s pretend we can keep this moment forever.

Recorded 2018–20
