The story
The narwhal had been there for three Tuesdays. It did not eat or speak, but it occupied the center of the room with a quiet, heavy certainty. Gerald tried to move the sofa, but the narwhal simply stood there, its spiral tusk leaving a thin white line on the plaster. They ate tuna sandwiches in silence. The goldfish circled its bowl, indifferent to the scale of the visitor. Eventually, Gerald stopped asking why it had come and began leaving a spare pillow by the door, just in case the narwhal decided to rest.
The brief
A quietly enormous narwhal stands motionless in a beige living room, its tusk scraping the ceiling. Pale afternoon light falls across grey walls and a small floral sofa, while a single goldfish swims in a bowl on a side table.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
