Break(s) mean many things. a coffee break. the shattering of a plate glass window. Breaking convention. A difficult subject broken down into pieces. They are necessary structural failures that precede repair and require care, with activity intensifying at the breaking points. They can be acts of violence. They can be generative, breaking down what no longer serves you. In all, breaks imply lapses and gaps in time, space, and relationships at any scale. Removing and troubleshooting, breaking up, any physical or mental violence that can cause or result from a break. How we choose to fill these breaks is the question.
