You were beautiful, as always
and though your towers, your monuments and bridges
have always drawn those in search of your essence
its often better found in open doorways
and windows
because its there you see the honest work of
hands and the tenderness of
touch from the care with which they are created.
Thank you for the indifference you show me
for it's through this very indifference that lets me learn the art of seeing you.
Until we meet again, bisous ❤️
*The research residency was a very interesting and intense time. We did a lot of walking (8-10 miles a day in some cases) took a lot of photos, presented and talked about our work at the Paris College of Art, listened to numerous lectures by curators, artists and historians and hosted an Open Studio at the historic atelier of the painter Amedeo Modigliani. Special thanks to Arnaud for being my guest at the Open Studio and for the walks we took around the neighborhoods. I'm still re-adjusting to the time change but will get back to blogging again very soon. Until then, thank you, my friends, for checking in on me :))
