Jingwei and the Unfinished Sea

White water rises around Jingwei as she returns with another stone. A rough ring of timber and rock reaches into the sea, its far side still open.

A Stone in Flight

A small bird skims the breakers above timber caught in the foam.

Another stone, another flight across the water.

The bird rises with its stone; houses on the cliff recede below.

Timber and stone form an incomplete ring, crossed by a returning bird.
