While it was shocking, the beauty of it immediately amazed me. This display of nature’s chaos remained in my house for over a week. I continued to document it as it changed in the light and the flowers began to fade. I also filmed myself walking threw it and pouring more water on it. I tried mopping it up several times but it just wasn’t time yet. It was a beautiful experiment in what I will call live art. And I loved the feeling that I was living with it. I hope to find ways to continue this practice.
Now looking back at this event it feels like it was a blessing for creative projects yet to come, a blessing from water and wind and even the Santa Fe River that runs next to this new home. I let go of so much in that move, there really had been so much destruction and shattering. Since then, with the blessing of nature herself, my creative process has been about finding the beauty in it all.
