Even after all this time,  the Sun has never said to the Earth, “You owe me.” Look what happens with a love like that. It lights the whole  sky. – Hafiz

We need not look directly into the sun, to feel its warmth. We need not look at her, to be struck by her presence.  Like the sun, the subject can be felt and known without being seen. It’s this idea of seeing through feeling that inspired “Rising.” She effortlessly fills and owns the space she moves through, rendering all bystanders intoxicated by her presence. She generates a heat that can’t be described or imitated. You, the bystander, are flushed. You are addicted. You want more.
