Work in Progress (i could go on forever listing things i love)
"These love letters," my dad said, "I think I know why you are looking for them." I was skeptical. "You think you lost them, but you never wrote them. You are writing them now." He might be on to something, I thought. But I still knew they existed. Years went by and I continued to be fixated on this search for punctuation. My father and I roamed (and continue to roam) the valley looking for something we couldn't define. It is said that if you can't define something, you don't really understand it. Perhaps this isn't true. Perhaps sometimes you can't define something because it is ingrained in you- somewhere in your genetic code even. It is instinctual. I am a hoarder- a packrat. I am compiling a collection of images from my home that speak to something ingrained deep within me. Where it will end, I'm not entirely sure, but I continue to be lead further into the past by these images of the present.
