I think that the root of the wind is water

"Emily Dickinson's poem in my artist's book begins with, "I think that the Root of the Wind is Water-" The poem examines the inherent interconnection of environmental elements. Her words speak to the sublime mystery of nature's web with a tone of reverence and wonder. My soft edged abstractions with their three dimensional movements are meant to compliment Dickinson's words to create a gentle yet engaging experience. Today, as our planet experiences increasing climate instability, Dickinson's message is a relevant reminder to honor and protect our environment"--Artist's statement from 23 Sandy Gallery website, viewed 6/8/2022
