"Everything solid melts with the air"’ is a visual poem of fading identity and the roots which it's birthed from. Each piece is held by metal in between tracing paper which reads:

​

​

" Everything solid melts with the air, identity fades under sunbeams into dried up soil

Dust, pollen, mold., settles on the surface 

Of what is blanketed by earth

Ah! That porous solidity

Like an island in the glazed look of the dying

Even the roots of lemon trees

Melt and hide beneath the surface."
