Meeting
at the Watering Hole
stories of the land in all difficult places must be listened to
I will sojourn to the Parque Natural Sierra María in the Iberian peninsula…
an arid zone struggling against the combined forces of climate change, global markets and land degradation,
to listen deeply to the land and collaborate with other artists and land materials
