One figure heaves the weight of another figure, who hangs heavy and anatomically incomplete. “I believe that most rescues are slow and long,” Kershisnik comments, “and we don’t get to see the conclusion, or at least not for a very, very long time.” While one might wonder if rescuing efforts are fruitful, they are heroic and they are shared.
“Perhaps we are all engaged in the long, slow rescue of each other.”
—Brian Kershisnik
