Art of Almost

Set in the vibrant yet emotionally complex city of Cebu this nonfiction follows the intertwined lives of two women navigating love, identity, and meaning. Kaia Vale, 29, is a queer artist whose life has been shaped by intense, consuming relationships. After a devastating breakup that left her emotionally depleted, she retreats into solitude, questioning not just her capacity to love again, but her purpose as a creator. Her days are marked by avoidance: of intimacy, of ambition, of herself. She journals obsessively, trying to make sense of the patterns that keep repeating. Kaia is drained by love—not because she doesn’t believe in it, but because she gave too much of herself without boundaries. Solene Elgin, 25, is a community organizer and florist who sees beauty in the mundane. Raised in a family that taught her love was a daily practice, not a dramatic event, Solene approaches relationships with clarity and generosity. She’s out, proud, and emotionally literate. Her life is structured around rituals of care—morning walks, handwritten notes, and tending to her rooftop garden. Solene is prepared to share love, not as a cure, but as a collaboration. She’s happy, not because life is perfect, but because she’s learned how to hold joy and grief in the same breath. Their paths cross during a Queernival event that has poetry held at Banawa. What begins as a casual conversation about a shared love for Audre Lorde and wildflowers becomes a slow-burning connection. Through interviews, diary excerpts, and real conversations, the book traces how Kaia and Solene navigate the tension between emotional chaos and emotional clarity. This is not a story of perfect love—it’s a story of honest love. Of learning to communicate across different emotional languages. Of unlearning the idea that love must hurt to be real. And of discovering that sometimes, the most radical act is letting yourself be seen.
