The road is too long The sky is too vast The wandering heart is homeless at last

For as much as Crewdson’s secret inner life is surely revealed by his photographs,on viewing them one’s own secret inner life is revealed too, at least to oneself.
And revelation produces change. You have to expose yourself to an alternative world, a fictional world, if you will, and enter it.
A world where you can reside long enough to furnish it with your preexisting memories, dreams and reflections…

“…I struggle with enormous discrepancies: between the reality of motherhood and the image of it, between my love for my home and the need to travel, between the varied and seductive paths of the heart. The lessons of impermanence, the occasional despair and the muse, so tenuously moored, all visit their needs upon me and I dig deeply for the spiritual utilities that restore me: my love for the place, for the one man left, for my children and friends and the great green pulse of spring.”
