"The piece almost feels like a pregnant belly: full, taut, at the culmination of expansion. A portal, wide at one end and tapered to the diameter of a penny at the other, almost gasps for air. I feel a strong association of this form to that of an individual at birth and death—and every breath we drew was Hallelujah. Hallelujah!—the taking of one’s first breath, the surrender of one’s last. Hallelujah! A holy and reverent fullness."--Amanda Gentry.
