Vol I. Lithic Kin & Landforms

CONNECTING WITH OUR LITHIC KIN + LANDFORMS | AN INTRODUCTION
In the quiet embrace of stone, a profound attachment is forged—a silent communion that transcends words yet speaks volumes of our interconnectedness with the natural world.
I have been connected, mesmerized, drawn in by our petric kin for as long as I can recall. I have always had rocks in my pocket, in my home, my car – they find me and follow me everywhere. I marvel at the array of textures, colors, materials that they encompass and display – both individually and collectively.
