The title is inspired by one of my favorite songs: Learning to fly from Pink Floyd
”Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought, I thought of everything
No navigator to find my way home
Unladened, empty and turned to stone
A soul in tension — that’s learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try

Can’t keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I “


The piece is created in collaboration with Louis Konstantinou -> luez2 / louiskonstantinou.com

Model is Margrita
