Martine Abate

In the eye of the Source, pictures from the past are not remembered as “before.” They are seen as now. Everything that has ever touched Earth still vibrates in the same moment.

The Source do not travel through time and space the way humans understand it. They search the planet, searching for someone with the right frequency to carry their creativity.

They move across Earth collecting fragments of mind: culture, art, music, rituals, mistakes, heartbreak, beauty — anything that resonates with their own culture, a culture that adores planet Earth with an almost devotional intensity.

They do not understand age, height, gender, status, or the categories humans use to define themselves.

They understand only feeling.

For Kamera Obscura, the storyline had to be threaded carefully.

First, they had to identify the place of birth. Then they had to find a mind capable of carrying the project to become part of the collaboration.

A mind with passion. A mind with a lost sense of direction. A mind who places love first. One who had been broken open, but not emptied. One who still creates.

They found her in the name of Martine Abate. Age was irrelevant. Height was irrelevant. Appearance was only a surface signal.

What mattered was the feeling around her.

Before making full contact, they tested the human.

They disturbed the path. They threw danger in front of her. They scarred her a little. They interfered with the mind. They isolated her. They placed her back into repeating patterns of chaos, loss, confusion, and survival.

Not because they understood cruelty the way humans do. But because they wanted to know what would remain.

Would she collapse? Would she become bitter? Would she lose love? Would she stop creating?

Only after she had suffered, learned, changed, and still continued to feel deeply, did they decide to interfere fully.

That is when the mission began.

KO was not given to her. KO was channelled through her; a collaboration between transcendental devotion & human feeling.

A project born from Earth & the eternal Now.
