Issue 03: Reconstruction

In this issue, reconstructing takes us to a place of hope, a place of grace, and even a place of meaning. Words have been deciphered and redefined, life-giving language found in the silence of a brooding bird and the loyalty of an unexpected friend. Grace is experienced through the reality of a mundane testimony, the comfort of a muddy field, and the drunken kiss of a tainted whore. Language, lives, and images find themselves participating the exercise of reconstruction.
