Self-shrugging through retouched harm, Maria Hardin’s cute girls watch when I eat aether tongues its verse across a scratched fossil of care and brushes the shrinking hair of its homegrown language in a mirror that keeps color as the grey fetish of the omnisad. Worry and magic, here, are two shops left by separate aggressive vacancies to the mind of the same fought-over shoplifter. Both online and in-hand, both paused afterlife and gasping search engine, it asks us to go skin-to-skin in a mini-museum of penetralia where I was, you were, moved. What a still stilling work.
