“When you take a flower in your hand and really look at it, it’s your world for the moment. I want to give that world to someone else. Most people in the city rush around so they have no time to look at a flower. I want them to see it whether they want to or not…. Nobody sees a flower - really - it is so small it takes time - we haven't time - and to see takes time, like to have a friend takes time.” - Georgia O’Keeffe
Nature as family and being in community with the nurturing responsibility within that relationship. Layers contextualize a chaotic harmony. Sensory and extrasensory languages breath messages urging a spirit request, indistinct becomes instinct, the fertile rhythm, a nourishing force for vegetation.
“Wild meadow sweetgrass grows long and fragrant when it is looked after by humans. Weeding and care for the habitat and neighboring plants strengthens its growth” - Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer
