Yesterday, when I was at the Ludwig modern art museum in Cologne, Germany, I saw this:
… and I thought, “‘Making the Unseen Visible’ would be a good title for tomorrow’s blog post.”
Before yesterday, Germany had been unseen by me and had taken up visible space in my head as an unsafe place for Jewish people, like me. But yesterday, making the unseen Germany visible helped replace some of my old fears and assumptions with visible humanity and shared experience.
Actually, as I’m creating this blog post, the images are loading but are not visible to me, which is a first in my 10 years of daily blogging. Let’s see if I’ll be making the unseen visible with my other images for today.
Thanks to all who are making the unseen visible by expressing their thoughts and feelings, including you!
