So many have asked about my time in Assisi. It has been difficult to
articulate and share about the large and small elements of the
experience that made it so inspiring, rewarding, thought provoking,
moving,...but I am working on it! I am still thinking about and
processing so many aspects of it, which I am sure I will be doing for
quite a while! Creating the new body of work will undoubtedly be an integral part of processing the experience.
Interestingly, since returning from Italy I have noticed that I am
still scanning my surroundings with a heightened sense of observation,
looking for beauty and meaning around me. In
Assisi, I knew I had limited time and was seeking to capture imagery and
experience the surroundings to create my
Thin Places body of work. Yet, here I am, back in Ohio, looking closely
and appreciating the beauty around me. What an unexpected surprise!
