last year on her birthday 🖤
🕊❤️ Marina 🌈 sparkles and sunshine and rainbows embodied. the rarest diamond of a person. too good for this world. if you knew Marina you know. she made everyone feel special, and deeply loved. her friends were EVERYTHING to her. we knew each other more than half our lives and she has always been family. my mom was so obsessed with her- who wasn't?! to be in her presence was a blessing. i'll never forget the laughter. the stories we shan't share. HER LAUGH. the way she lived life to the fullest. joy to the absolute brim. we are all forever changed by your love and i'm eternally grateful. i'll miss you everyday, and look for you in all the shimmer.
The larger ideas Sweeney can now discern in the photograph exuded less pull in the moment, with the artist alternately describing the process of capturing the image as “instinctual” and “a dance” that forced her to navigate both the shifting environment (the light changed drastically as the sun arched higher in the sky) and the vulnerabilities that came with being undressed in a location that, while remote, could still be viewed from neighboring properties.

“Especially when nudity is involved, there’s always this sense of urgency,” said Sweeney, who captured the photo with a Fujifilm X-T4 set on a tripod and programmed to snap a new frame every two to three seconds. “But that mental jolt of feeling like, I have to make this thing right now, that’s my favorite place to create from, because it’s less about planning things out and more of a dance honoring the present moment, where you’re seeing what nature gives you, seeing what your environment gives you. … So, sometimes you’re ideating and creating very specific shots you want to get. And sometimes you just find a window and see what happens.”

💔
There's an infinite amount of things I could say. You are the reason for everything. You are the biggest force, the brightest sun. You are fire, and light, and laughter, and palpable electricity. I will never recover. I will always miss your smile. I can't wait to see you again someday. You are my home, my source, my future, my life, my purpose. I am eternally grateful to be yours. Being yours is undeniable. I learned everything from you. We share lungs. We share skin and bones and heart and soul. I don't even know what we will do without you. Every kid became hers. Every animal she saw she loved with her whole spirit. Her soul is unconditional. She overcame mountains. She broke cycles and carved her essence into everyone she met like carving a name into a tree. We were so lucky to get to work on set together and share in our creativity. The vision. The light. The smile. The love. I could go on forever.
