My family is currently away from me. After a three year period together in the same city, my mother, sister, and brother all now live east, west, and south of me - one in a different country, the other two in different provinces.
Since I moved out in my late teens/early 20s, I've been away from family, so it isn't so strange to be apart like this, I guess.
A barrier is necessary for continuation. My own expression has gone barren, even though I can feel the richness of soil underneath, nothing springs up. A layer has been inactive : just below the surface, the soils shift and new plants are planned. This barrier of stone must be enriched to produce a new growth - I need the darkness and coolness of the soil before launching into the air and the light.
Since becoming public with my art, I've sunk beneath a hidden layer once again. This blog will be a step in cultivating the grounds that I wish to stand on again.
