Yesterday I went for a walk in the beach next to my house, we have a crowded vegetation growing very close to the water. And because it is Provence there is this clear golden magical light, especially in spring time.
At some point the magical light shined through the bushes showing a path between them, like in a romantic set up, flowers on the sides, trees reclining over, the water in the horizon. Wow, i was impressed. As I came closer and started to walk the path I realised that after 10 meters it was blocked with bamboo and other plants I wish I could name. but you get the picture.
It hit me, wow, no one walked here for so long (because of covid) the path is gone. so simple. If you walk a path it exist, if you stop taking it, its gone. That simple example gave me permission to build up the official site for the new path I’m taking : A print shop of photo based digital drawings.
Narrative. In a global fight over the narrative raging in the world right now I wanted to walk the path of the things I hold dear. As my lifestyle, as a mother, as a home maker. as a human being, as what I wish for my children’s children to have available in their world.
Looking at what other humans are doing right now in the world with science, technology and politics, Im going local, personal and natural. That is how I react to what others are doing. I focus on what I do. It helps.
So I warn you, flowers, kids, boats and other magical set ups is what im in for right now. I know its a change, but life changes all the time and change is banana, we established that before.
