“[…] phenomena may have a powerful presence in people’s lives precisely because of their absence […] The duality of absence and presence is contained within the confrontation with the in­complete: that which shows absence not as an ­entire existential emptiness, but as a defective continuity, something that is in need of completion or from which parts are missing.”

Mikkel Bille, Frida Hastrup, Tim Flohr Sørensen
