thanks folks

The writing that goes with the pic is very short;

A woman lies down. Her body feels the curve and turn of the Earth itself. She seems to hear a rush of water as sleep laps at her. Her spirit is not at rest. There is a nightbird.

I didn't know this was a picture of dream spirits of a woman for a while. I just knew the way it was going to look and that the bird was both part of and a symbol of places that are often unseen within. It was a real moment when I knew that this was the landscape of a woman.

Cello, the separation of the head from the body is part of what I'd doing. You know sometimes when you are mostly asleep and your body is this great inert mass that you don't know how to move? It is lush and full and open and removed from the noise inside her head. I wanted ambiguity in her face too - is it pain or puzzlement or orgasm . . . stuff like that.
