This is how Thais falls asleep:
She lays on her back
between my legs as I sit on the bed
her own legs above her head
She pulls off her socks
her hands reach into my hair
forming fists
pulling me forwards
until her legs are crossed over her
resting on my chest.
She pulls my hair around her head
hands weaving –
she's casting magic
she's conducting an orchestra
She's safe within a curtain of me
she's breathing slowly
she's asleep
I love unpicking the invisible threads that pull at our emotions and trigger behaviours. Especially as it relates to decision making, individual or group behaviour, and our mental health.
As a digital product designer, I often funnel this knowledge into my work. I also like asking questions about how software design impacts our wellness, self-image, self-perception and interconnectedness.
