I. In a Bohemian Way
II. Wandering
III. On the Gravitas of Salvation
The young adult life unfolds in distinct phases. In a Bohemian Way evokes an early state of openness and trust, in which life feels light and everything seems possible. Freedom is taken for granted; there is a naïve form of surrender to what is still undefined.
In Wandering, existence turns into a search, marked by doubt, growing pains, and an intense inward turn. This inner life is explored: drifting becomes necessary in order to find direction.
On the Gravitas of Salvation situates itself between the search for meaning, the experience of loss, and the solace found in salvation. Together, these Three States of Becoming form a romantic reflection on the process of coming of age.
