About this work
After the day shift, the aging cave. The lamps are yellow. The stone is wet. Ihyeon stands more as a cheesemaker than an apprentice. She is married. Her husband’s farm is in another valley.
“Just wipe the white mold.” Push the iron door and the night ends as a humidity log. Stay by the racks and it stops being a log.
