a higher-res image (without the moving candle because .gifs are small file sizes is here.
Edited to incorporate some of the images from the passage of text below into the main picture (and to add a bit of movement in the .gif - to play). I still can't work how best to combine the text with the image. I could overlay the image, or write it into the border, maybe? Or is it better without the text at all?
Imagine a labyrinth. Imagine yourself a traveller, deep, deep underground, passages worn from the rock over time, from water perhaps, that fluid kind of knowledge that eats away at soft rock but leaves granite - the oldest, hardest stones - behind. The passages twist and turn, some inviting, with the glimpse of warm lights, some dark and cold and full of stones or bones that might be re-imagined as treasure. Sometimes you glimpse locked boxes glimmering in the walls of the labyrinth, and sometimes you find keys to open them, to find...what? A perfect egg shaped wonder, a paper fortune, a burst of music, or a sudden gust of air that temporarily extinguishes a candle - leaves you feeling your way - tentative - along stone walls to inch your way forwards. This is a land of strange artefacts; small cubes of letters, photographs pinned up and drying, a sideboard, full of tiny shelves and velvet-lined drawers that you can store your luggage in or in which you find letters, books, secret treasures, voices whispering in the darkness.
