Traversing above the cliffs of Benwee –
Laura and I alone - in vastness
Immense awareness of distances, proximities
Constantly shifting, atmosphere turning, sliding
Spatial signals and orientations.
Vague trail touchstones, punctuate,
Moving outward but within
A spiral reality,
Continuously re-configured present –
Grounded and weightless
Locating, reflecting in space, through time.
The ancient diagonals intersect,
Boundaries of land, air, sea and self dissolve
Like the distance from then to now.

Some Memorable Shows from 2021-2022
The past two plus years have been challenging in so many ways -- no travel, no restaurants, no openings, no hugs -- to mention only a few of the more minor Covid losses....Nevertheless, some important shows happened in New York, and I was able to get to a small fraction of them. Here are images from a few of the standouts. My sincere regrets to all my friends and colleagues whose shows I missed.
