PHOTOGRAPHY AS MANDALA
A ritual circle which brings the far away, the very small, the ignored
or half forgotten, into the magical middle realm of the contemplative
compassionate eye.
A ritual circle which not just mirrors the Beautiful, but reflects also the
Strange and Ugly through the clear, yet necessarily imperfect and
always slightly blurred, lens of partial truth.
OLD & NEW
The difference between the Old and New Economy is
that the one says, "Let your money work for you!,"
while the other says, "Let the Sun work for you!"
Remarkably, this one difference will necessarily
and in a forceful way help bring the world of Culture
back in step with the world of Nature.
PROOF WITHOUT WORDS
In matters of Philosophy and Design, demonstration
is everything.
Once one stands atop the mountain they said could
not be climbed, has played the piece they said could
not be played, nothing more need be said.
