The Awe in Small Things

A Study in Attention and Becoming

The Awe in Small Things follows a monkey through a series of quiet environments. Each scene captures a form of attention: arranging stones, holding fruit, observing the world before moving through it.

Across the sequence, a pattern emerges not of progress or resolution, but of continuity. Knowledge carried forward through contact, patience, and repetition. The collection reflects on how experience slowly forms over time.

About the book

An inquisitive monkey experiences the attention and awe in everyday life: arranging stones, holding fruit, pausing to observe, the pleasant surprise found in the unexpected.
