finitude

It’s one thing to intellectually understand the finitude of our lives and another to actually live it out.

The pangrams from yesterday’s Spelling Bee were finitude, infinitude, unfitted and unidentified.

But, as the artist reminds us, life’s finitude is precisely what makes it meaningful — making it a little bit easier to acknowledge, and even accept, the precariousness in all of our lives.

“I guess the type I like is the one working with classic questions about our finitude and limitations as humans.”

Where “G.O.Y.K.” imagines a way around the finitude of the body, “Poog” hopes that one might find a way to live within it.
