In his latest body of work, The Man Who Lived Between Sunset and Moonrise, Paterson delves into the delicate relationship between the natural world and its potential collapse, framing it as a personal, cultural, and political concern. The title itself evokes the crepuscular hours—the fleeting moments between sunset and moonrise—when the earth shifts, and creatures that thrive in twilight emerge. This transitional period serves as a metaphor for the precarious balance we face in the era of climate change, reflecting the delicate interplay between tides, ecosystems, and human impact.
