MAY 2025 // BREATHING UNDERWATER
“Breathing Underwater” is the name of one of my favourite songs from one of my favourite bands, Metric. I used to play Metric songs non-stop while I was dyeing in my tiny basement dye room and have gone to every Emily Haines and Metric show in Vancouver in the past 20 years. Emily’s song “Breathing Underwater” is about experiencing the highs and lows of life — everything from ecstatic joy and elation to feeling like you are drowning and struggling under the weight of life, and asking the question again and again “is this my life?”. It’s a question that helps you find gratitude for the amazing things in your life and also gives you permission to access grace during the hard times.
This colourway is just gorgeous. The transitions and movement of colour just feel like water swirling around me, flooded with weight and light. And the hits of green and purple feel like the surprise of fish and sea life in the water.
