Revisitations (2022)

If There is A Seed in Your Palm.

It’s a full moon tonight and I am in an exquisite mood. I was driving back from Ahu’s when a group of clouds moved and gave may for the moon in her entirety. Perfect circle full of mirth, magic and majesty. Moving between the shadow of concealment and the invisible…
