“Silence is so accurate.”

Listen deeply. Beauty surrounds you.

Does place have an effect on my work? If so, how do I recognize it? Or does it take someone else to point it out to me?

Place
Musings on the idea of place, both actual and mythical. My history includes living in three places, San Francisco, Santa Fe and Marfa, which have prevalent, public mythologies in many ways at odds with the real. In the difference between the real place and the form a particular place takes root in our imagination we create our own private mythology.

Life with Zack
