For Qinni

Description

EN:

I've never directly interacted with Qinni. Like many others, I knew her only through her art posts, and the descriptions accompanying them; all we shared was the hazy, ill-defined connection of largely anonymous Internet users. And still, that was enough for the last few days to darken far, far more than I'd ever have expected from the loss of someone I've never met.

I hesitated a great deal to submit my own tribute. It's frightening to reflect on all the other creators I appreciate just like Qinni, and I soberly wonder how often I will have to lament losing another one of them, over the course of my own life. I suppose I should try to brace myself for more moments like this, but I don't think it will help.

I've been surprised recently to find out just how well-known she was, and if nothing else I hope her community was able to help provide her with a good deal of emotional support.

FR :

Je n'ai jamais communiqué de façon directe avec Qinni. Comme nombre d'autres gens, je ne l'ai connue que par le biais de ses œuvres et leurs descriptions ; il n'y avait entre nous que le lien faible et flou d'internautes passablement anonymes. Et pourtant, sa rupture me secoue bien plus que ce que j'aurais pu deviner.

J'ai tergiversé un long moment avant de commencer cette image. J'ose à peine songer à tous les gens en ligne que je tiens en haute estime, tout comme Qinni, qui s'éteindront avant moi. Peut-être devrais-je essayer de m'y préparer, mais je ne saurais comment faire.

Je n'avais pas idée de la renommée de Qinni, sur ce site et ailleurs ; je me permets d'espérer qu'elle a pu en tirer un soutien moral satisfaisant.
