“I shoot the way I see,” she told me, “I just take the picture I want to take.”
And I realized that I was talking to a follower of the Artistic Wild, soul deep, intuitive, and unyielding in her vision. Her eye is focused and it’s focused on her own heart and the strange beauty it sees. And god does she see beauty. I want to be more like that.
And she trusted me, wholly. So I let go and trusted me too. What a gift that was.
Thank you Deanna.
Sasha = Half-feral, visual memoirist and earth mystic with a talent for offending people unintentionally. I have a BA in English with emphasis on psychology and mythology and I will likely spend the rest of my life studying the intimate weaving between those three fields and marinating in my own personal folklore.
I believe art is a sacred practice of presence that emerges organically through the audacity to believe that your lived experience is worthy of witness.
