ENTRY DESCRIPTION
WHITE AMARYLLIS: This image is part of a long-term project on ageing, exploring parallels in the ageing process across life forms. It is fascinating to observe how the structure of living things intensifies – becoming wrinkled, folded, gnarled – even as it disintegrates. Things become more themselves, more unique, as they express the causes and conditions of their own unrepeatable history... until they lose integrity and live on only through the other lives for which they in turn have become the causes and conditions.

AUTHOR
I am fascinated by how putting a frame around something transforms the quality of our attention. We are living in a miraculous world that is essentially the ongoing creation of an unimaginably complex, intricate, and infinitely beautiful work of art. It is my intention to draw attention to the complexity and beauty of “ordinary” things, as a drop-in-the-ocean antidote to the tendency toward shallowness of modern life.
