Fragments of space leave behind their own narrative of what has been, and hold the potential of what might be. They invite questions of who has vacated the space and left an imprint, and what traces may remain for future narrative development, whether whimsical or of more serious import. This new narrative might develop thereby changing the exact nature of the space, or the perception of it. Perhaps the space itself generates and influences the narrative by suggesting fleeting absence, latent presence, or anticipation of further human intervention.
