AMERICA TO HOLLAND TO NORWAY: MY CHANGING AESTHETIC


From one land to another
to another
Farewell to family
over the clouds
ancient cobblestones
vast flatlands
water and wind harnessed
then to the North
seasick along the Nordic coast
water and wind wild
upon another shoreline
safe on my ancestors' mountains

From America to Holland to Norway, 2009 to 2014. Today Norway is my home, and Yves' home, and Leikny's home. Today I work as an artist, breathing in all that surrounds me here, and from it, creating. My aesthetic has changed with as much hardship, pain of loss, curiosity, and remarkable joy as has my life in these years. This blog discusses my journey.
