Wesley Chan Instagram – It’s done. My dad started building this row boat at the start of the pandemic. In his tiny garage, he made it completely by hand and completely from scratch. This is the first time it went on water. And as I look at it and reflect, I feel torn with this thought:
Is it enough to simply make something?
Why must it be beautiful— What must it carry—How far must it go— Who must see it— to be at least acknowledged, and at best, honored? There is so much I love and hate about what this thing represents.
Hate is a strong word. As is Love. Both of which are islands I find myself floating between in this boat that was not made from my hands, but from my blood. | Posted on 29/May/2023 08:50:17
