We So Deeply Belong Here

“We belong on the earth…the rhythm of the clay and its seasons sings within our hearts. The sun warms the clay and fosters life. The moon blesses the night.”
-John O’Donohue

The Irish word for the elements is the same word for desire—we long to experience the elements in ancient and primal ways. In this way, Anne Marie’s relationship with clay is simultaneously playful and revelatory as she seeks to understand her own humus, her own relationship with the Earth and the unseen realms of Imagination.

Photography

For Anne Marie, seeing is not limited to the eyes. Seeing is a full body experience, and her photographic approach is one of reverence, awe, and playful trust.
