The Portrait

What Serhat asks of its bearer

The first letter of Serhat is Seen — an outward turn toward asking. Beneath the surface, Ra brings an interior of repetition and momentum; Ha (soft) brings an interior of life and breath. These are what the name does without ever announcing it. The closing letter is Ta: things resolve gently. The bearer is asked to inhabit each letter consciously, until frontier is not what the name says but what the life shows.
