The Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, always falls sometime in September. Eight days later comes Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement.<br />
Rosh Hashanah for me always meant apples and honey, and an afternoon party with Jewish family members. Yom Kippur was always the day I tried to fast with my mother, but I usually only made it through the morning.<br />
When I was about ten years old I had a profound break with Judaism, based on my very literal understanding of our rabbi's explanation of Yom Kippur. I heard him say that as long as a person told God they were sorry for whatever bad thing they had done, God would forgive him and re-inscribe him in the Book of Life for another year. "But that's not right!" I shrieked to my mother. "If you kill someone God should not forgive you!" I refused to go back to synagogue.<br />
Years later I understand that the rabbi meant Jews should use the time between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur to try to resolve problems with other people, and with God.<br />
I created my action as an adaptation of taschlich, a traditional ritual from this time of year in which people throw bread into a body of water, and the water carries away the bread as though it were carrying away our sins. <br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">El ano nuevo judío, Rosh Hashanah, siempre cae en algún día de septiembre. Ocho días después viene Yom Kippur, Dia de la Expiación.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Rosh Hashanah para mi siempre significaba manzanas con miel, y una fiesta por la tarde con familiares judíos. Yom Kippur siempre era el día en que intentaba ayunar con mi madre, pero normalmente solo aguantaba hasta el mediodía.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> Cuando tenia 10 anos me rompí profundamente con judaísmo, en base de mi comprensión muy literal de la explicación del rabbi sobre Yom Kippur. Yo lo entendi decir que tan pronto como una persona pedía disculpas de Dios por cualquier transgresión, que Dios lo perdonaría y lo reinscribiria en el Libro de la Vida para otro ano.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">"Pero eso no es correcto" grite a mi mama. "Si mates a alguien Dios no te debía perdonar!" Rehusia regresar a la sinagoga.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Anos después entiendo que el rabbi quería decir que los judíos deben usar el tiempo entre Rosh Hashanah y Yom Kippur para resolver problemas con otras personas, y con Dios.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> Mi acción es una adaptación de taschlich, un rito tradicional en que la gente tira pan al agua, y el agua lleva el pan como si fuera los pecados del ano viejo.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
For my action I put on a white dress<br />
and bright blue rubber gloves, the kind used to wash dishes.<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Para mi acción me puse un vestido blanco</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">y guantes de goma azul celeste, el tipo que se usa para lavar platos</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
I wrestled a large blender out of a suitcase.<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Luché para sacar una licuadora grande de una maleta.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
I wrote onto slips of paper things I would like to leave behind in the old year:<br />
Insecurity<br />
Anxiety<br />
Depression<br />
Misunderstandings<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Escribi en papelitos cosas que quisiera dejar detrás en el ano viejo:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Inseguridad</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Ansiedad</span><br />

It sometimes seems to me that instead of articulating key points about performance, the artistic vocabulary obfuscates.<br />
<br />
So I visited the bookstore at the Museum of Contemporary Art of Barcelona, and started a list of words from the books in the section on criticism and theory:<br />
singularities<br />
rationalist<br />
postmodern<br />
contested<br />
privileged<br />
structuralism<br />
representation....<br />
<br />

<br />
I wrote these words in large font across a scroll of paper several meters in length.<br />
performativity<br />
textuality<br />
subjectivity<br />
positivism<br />
historicism<br />
constitutive<br />
discursivity<br />
aestheticization<br />
indoeuropean....<br />
<br />
Within the performance space I read these words as though they were forming complete sentences that make sense.<br />
philology<br />
marginalized<br />
semantic<br />
deconstructionism<br />
exegesis<br />
manifest<br />
ontologically<br />
psychoanalytic......<br />
<br />
I continue to read them until they are nothing but hypnotic syllables.<br />
<br />
Then, borrowing a page from Yves Klein, art fights back.<br />

The seed for this piece germinated in 2010 when I read a book about Jews hiding in plain sight in Poland during the World War II period. They changed their names, straightened and lightened their hair, and tried to lighten their skin in an effort to 'pass' as white Christians. <br />

<br />
At first I had the writing of the words take place in preparation for the performance, until I realized that the process of writing on my skin represented the stigmatizing transformation of my personal characteristics. At that point I decided to invited members of the public to write on me, to socially implicate them in this structure we all co-create.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">After the words are written I become aware of their presence, and I try to rub them off, which doesn't work. I try to hide them, whether with other parts of my body or with the surrounding architecture. Of course I cannot hide all the words simultaneously; it is a futile effort.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">This is where the magic realism comes in: I take out from hiding a fully baked cake, implying that this has come from my skin. In different places I have had very different cakes, from the series of cakes I baked at home in Barcelona to a tres leeches cake in Miami. I either cut the word 'STIGMA' out of the cake or I write in on top with frosting. I then serve the cake to the public, and the stigma is consumed and transformed.</span><br />

This past couple of years I have had the opportunity to perform versions of "Nevertheless" in Paris, Belgrade, Tegucigalpa, Madrid, Barcelona, Miami, New York and Berlin. The piece has changed and evolved to implicate the audience more in the action. I used to lay out all the eggs myself before the action officially began.<br />

I now hand out eggs to everyone in the audience at the beginning. I ask them to notice the egg's weight, it's temperature, it's texture, color, and form. I ask them to consider the life cycle of an egg, and what eggs mean to them.<br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 12pt;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times; font-size: small;">A note on nudity: At first I performed 'Nevertheless' fully clothed. I avoided nudity because I found it too distracting from the premise of the piece. Over time I decided that a nude body could interact on a more elemental level with the eggs, and that I found the clothes distracting. A couple of times I performed wearing only underwear out of a strange modesty, and I received feedback that the lines of the clothing ruined the approximation of my form in a fetal position to that of the egg. </span></span></div>

The color of the field underlying the eggs has varied. In cases where I could lay the eggs directly on the ground the color was that of concrete or the grey paint of the floor. In places where a quick clean-up was required I have used plastic of different colors:<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16px;"> bright green, fuchsia, and red.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">At sunset on December 31:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #073763; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">1. Unroll a long piece of white paper from a scroll</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0b5394; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">2. Write across it in very large letters:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0b5394; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"> "Goodbye to all the Bad Spirits of the Last Year, 2011"</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Note: Bad Spirits of 2011 included four in-patient hospital stays, several rounds of out-patient day treatment, several new medications that didn't help, a round of 20 electro-shock treatments that didn't help and also totally wrecked my memory, months of major depression and anxiety, plus cancelled, missed and forgotten opportunities.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">3. Tear the paper into a number of smaller pieces, and crumple each piece into a ball.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">4. Go outside with paper balls and a metal bucket.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">5. Put the first ball into the bucket and set it on fire.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">6. Enjoy watching it burn, concentrating on releasing all the bad spirits of 2011.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #990000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">7. Add each ball in succession until all are burned.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #990000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: lime; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">On New Year's Day</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">8. On small strips of paper, write the qualities I aspire to welcome into my heart in 2012:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Generous</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Creative</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: lime; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Open-hearted</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Positive, happy</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Grounded, centered</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Flow (as in, allow the good to flow through me)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">9. Go for a walk in a beautiful natural place, in my case the mountain below my house and above Barcelona.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: lime; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">10. Select spots to 'plant' each seed/quality, under a rock, in a tree, in a puddle.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">11. Think about the seed of each quality sprouting and growing in me during 2012.</span></div>Jessica Hirst / Palmer Fishmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01608441336020804994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-216072363356213487.post-65298986522678062292011-09-05T19:38:00.000-07:002012-10-05T08:09:49.912-07:00Stream on the Ranch - Changing Course<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
I went for a walk before breakfast today and stopped alongside a branch of the stream that runs through the ranch:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The stream is an offshoot of the Yampa River, which apparently carries quite a sediment load from up higher in the mountains.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeB8Ve5SK3GhGsQuEEyK2m1ywxk6yN8S4AP090eRSeR00cuKz9sVYQ0c_aW8wltjUh9a40gOSKfikRabwTh8_3aKkOD6bnClwMgR7fIxTNQHKcxJHuvhF_OmtgupWYwig3WIgBqmUaagW3/s1600/Stream2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeB8Ve5SK3GhGsQuEEyK2m1ywxk6yN8S4AP090eRSeR00cuKz9sVYQ0c_aW8wltjUh9a40gOSKfikRabwTh8_3aKkOD6bnClwMgR7fIxTNQHKcxJHuvhF_OmtgupWYwig3WIgBqmUaagW3/s320/Stream2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
The Yampa River is a free-flowing river, such that it changes its course when it floods, sometimes quite dramatically. This movement of the river bed allows for the generation of new forests and wetlands, some right here on the Carpenter Ranch.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixEvP2eO2toLx8ekJ3Z3jf8ot1Lt1TEuVMbGbiGfVHZK8Gcm9kS9ga1QDwNX9s-NLaBm05Jud2gw4OpxoGmGWt5bzz15voHYpCUt0IRcoM-wmoJY0_b1HCn5hZRIFhTWVd8KVKeblbKHO4/s1600/Stream3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixEvP2eO2toLx8ekJ3Z3jf8ot1Lt1TEuVMbGbiGfVHZK8Gcm9kS9ga1QDwNX9s-NLaBm05Jud2gw4OpxoGmGWt5bzz15voHYpCUt0IRcoM-wmoJY0_b1HCn5hZRIFhTWVd8KVKeblbKHO4/s320/Stream3.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
I was thinking about how the flooding river changing course could be a metaphor for life, how sometimes we are forced, or allowed, to alter our plans or activities based on incoming influences beyond our control. Sometimes these changes are welcome, other times they feel like an imposition. In the second case we might do well to look for what new possibilities or opportunities arise, as the new wetlands can be fertile ground for new growth.</div>

It helped, but I still had a sense of desperation and had to use a lot of energy to contain all my negative feelings. At the same time I made a huge effort to reach out and connect with the positive elements in the environment here. I joined my two fellow artists for an hour of weeding the garden around our little house after breakfast, and that collective physical exertion definitely helped my mood. Weeding, the process of editing plants on the land, is already a major theme of my experience here. I also went for a run with one of the other artists along the river under the cliffs, and we had a pleasant conversation and got to know one another a little bit better.<br />

I went back to bed for a couple of hours after breakfast because I just couldn't face the day. Here is what it looks like:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUxSpZFiwJYWmOiLhHQBNBWWEaKp8biJU4H7N05YcVzJdRYCWYzjMWEiG1Pt6TYDzqlwyuPvCuhGTDQ21KS8LJlilgnnZWHpvzpQT4GajKcHj2WRcTNtEh13uP5WuBeKNspadzghB7unx1/s1600/Day+2+Insides.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUxSpZFiwJYWmOiLhHQBNBWWEaKp8biJU4H7N05YcVzJdRYCWYzjMWEiG1Pt6TYDzqlwyuPvCuhGTDQ21KS8LJlilgnnZWHpvzpQT4GajKcHj2WRcTNtEh13uP5WuBeKNspadzghB7unx1/s320/Day+2+Insides.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>The drawing came out prettier than I felt - I think perhaps the blues should have been greys, but in the moment I was drawn to grasp the blue pastels. The pink up-and-down mimics my internal ups and downs, one moment feeling positive and a part of something, the next feeling absolutely alone and without anything meaningful to offer.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYeZroIViXbbBcikZSeNJnAW8WQVPqxjL2BBGrfyxQ6tohzQk7YK3WmbEVMSqK0IeMVJQpnHEJ7NSZsSJe5ipsDCt77C-TGmtMufX5fGbxUXJZYDM9Q_weY-BFybUm-aoyKxKClIRw89QM/s1600/Day+2+Insides+detail.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYeZroIViXbbBcikZSeNJnAW8WQVPqxjL2BBGrfyxQ6tohzQk7YK3WmbEVMSqK0IeMVJQpnHEJ7NSZsSJe5ipsDCt77C-TGmtMufX5fGbxUXJZYDM9Q_weY-BFybUm-aoyKxKClIRw89QM/s320/Day+2+Insides+detail.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>A detail -- some of the conflict in direction - can I grasp onto the positive energy, or will I collapse inward?<br />
One of the positive things I got to do today was borrow a car to go to the nearby town and explore a little bit. I went to an awesome nursery/tackle/feed store and got some interesting, articulate interviews with the owner and her children. I also had a fun conversation with the owner of the town's grocery store, in which he described how Hayden is special because everyone knows everyone else, and you can feel safe about your kids walking around because you know everyone cares about them.<br />
Here is my impression of the drive from ranch to town, several steps removed from reality:<br />

Oh, one more positive note - I worked with the other artists and the daughter of the ranch managers to move a huge pile of trimmed cottonwood tree branches from where we'd left them in the middle of the garden to the graveyard for discarded leftovers behind the barn. It was hard physical work, and the cooperative effort helped me want to be awake for the rest of the day.</div>Jessica Hirst / Palmer Fishmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01608441336020804994noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-216072363356213487.post-47850657342698322742011-09-02T20:23:00.000-07:002011-09-02T20:23:56.399-07:00Day 1 Color Impressions<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">So I don't consider myself a painter at all, and I don't often draw or sketch much of anything, but during my last week in San Diego I was introduced to a liberating expressive art studio, where people gather to collectively create with color. Otto and Raquel and I attended an 'Art Lunch', for which people bring their lunch and set themselves free with paint collectively on a huge shared piece of paper taped to the wall. I enjoyed it enough that I went back for an individual expressive art therapy session, focussed on my decision whether or not to come to this residency. I made a large, colorful, chaotic painting, half relating to my feelings about coming to Colorado and half about the possibility of not coming, and what that might mean.<br />
Obviously I decided to come, and I further decided I wanted to use this tool of uninhibited color application as part of my process for dealing with my complicated emotions, and for getting to know the ranch and coming into relationship with the physical environment. This is what I made on my first full day here:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiixFD5Nft-AMk57m4IOt1jIwlDKoosaRZVoHWOAIW3MRqIbJVjyQSzkCA1-5s2FM82dZspkroBBxDm3l7hAK4YioeKU845L8e8JimkBxzdzUvbfe6CZFv_N06e0iwjSAAuhGoCNWJOnmQv/s1600/Day+1+Insides.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiixFD5Nft-AMk57m4IOt1jIwlDKoosaRZVoHWOAIW3MRqIbJVjyQSzkCA1-5s2FM82dZspkroBBxDm3l7hAK4YioeKU845L8e8JimkBxzdzUvbfe6CZFv_N06e0iwjSAAuhGoCNWJOnmQv/s320/Day+1+Insides.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
This is my impression of my internal feelings: intense anxiety and fear, yet making a heroic effort to contain myself and begin to look beyond my inner turmoil to the excitement and possibilities of being here.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhI2LNjUx-lg8qp3aMYHnO5m9YC9NzT7Ku5WJswJ2o-0ysgIjF9e6hBMrXilNiJ33ZspOVSEaYC_wbPsgOSDXU2Zv4UIxL8HJHIunPm72toLA6dgkyJJYS0CUEynUV8mVVUem-2Y31sf7jW/s1600/Day+1+Insides+cross-section.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhI2LNjUx-lg8qp3aMYHnO5m9YC9NzT7Ku5WJswJ2o-0ysgIjF9e6hBMrXilNiJ33ZspOVSEaYC_wbPsgOSDXU2Zv4UIxL8HJHIunPm72toLA6dgkyJJYS0CUEynUV8mVVUem-2Y31sf7jW/s320/Day+1+Insides+cross-section.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>A detail of the same drawing.

</div>This is the second color impression for the day, a simple observation of the view outside the window of the studio: grasses, a fence, and a sky hung with some heavy clouds. It doesn't look like much, but that's not the point. The point is that drawing it brought me into closer relationship with the ranch environment, and forced me to make some more detailed observations than I would have otherwise. I also found the process of spreading the color on the page helped distract from and calm my raging anxiety.<br />

Drawing these clouds and taking that walk both taught me something about the variability and unpredictability of the skies here.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

First of all, I admit to lingering terror about being here at all. Apparently we (the three artists) are each expected to make a 35-40 minute presentation at a community event on September 24, and I have no idea what I will say/show/present. There is no connector for my computer to the projector, so unless I find a technical solution I won't be able to present video, which I had been thinking could be a central element of what I will do here this month. <br />
However, I decided that rather then focus on this gaping hole of fear inside me I would shift towards the external environment, so I set off across the ranch with my pack full of notebook, camera, video-camera and tripod. What would I see? What could I find to think about in a positive way?<br />
Suddenly out of nowhere the sky opened up and I was caught in a rainstorm with no protection. What luck! I ran through the tall grass and ducked under a shelter for gigantic round hay bales.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwXLSp8QAfJ5ijupZbCjLb8tcm7Q3RWVd6lBW4YfM-5kfqA05Q1EjPmYcxhmECZ0SkkIBG1vXCrb-8L5sEmW6umlPXK6drfCy3BXhcFJNUULT9AWZsIZpOC_N3ni27uGDpL1LAJxQdWSu8/s1600/Hay+Bales+in+shed.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwXLSp8QAfJ5ijupZbCjLb8tcm7Q3RWVd6lBW4YfM-5kfqA05Q1EjPmYcxhmECZ0SkkIBG1vXCrb-8L5sEmW6umlPXK6drfCy3BXhcFJNUULT9AWZsIZpOC_N3ni27uGDpL1LAJxQdWSu8/s320/Hay+Bales+in+shed.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
I had some time to appreciate the aesthetic form of these hay bales - they are substantial in size, each taller than I am, yet they are somewhat fragile, and could be torn apart with not much effort. They are a good example of the interconnection Thich Nhat Hanh talks about: the bales represent a lot of energy, all that went into growing the grass that became the hay; the sun, the rain, and the minerals and nutrients in the soil. Then they also contain all the energy that went into harvesting the hay, processing it into bales and transporting it to this storage area - all the human energy, plus the fossil fuel to power the machinery used.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

And here the bales sit, beautiful to look at, waiting to take their next steps to complete their destiny to supply energy to cows or other livestock. Their circular form is a perfect reminder of their participation in a cycle of production and the perpetuation of life.</div>

How do we choose to understand the things that happen to us? How do we perceive the things we cause to happen?<br />
How much choice do we have in how we understand or perceive? <br />
How fragile, or resilient, are we?<br />
One roll took place at Metafora art center in Barcelona, shot by Desiree Haupts, the other in a courtyard in El Papiolet, a small village in Spain, shot by Manuela Bernasconi. Both were shot for informal documentation. There's a more intentional video performance piece yet to come.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Two foreigners from the Americas arrive in Barcelona and start to look at online apartment listings. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They notice a relatively strong emphasis on photos of bathrooms and, more specifically, toilets. If there were only two photos of the apartment, one of them would be of the bathroom.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They eventually moved into a very nice new house. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> The first night they noticed that the toilets </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> wobbled. They were not securely attached to the floor. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When they mentioned the wobble to the landlord, he explained that they were loose for the same reason he had not installed light fixtures: </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">the eventual buyers of the house would of course want to put in their own choice of toilets. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> The two foreigners noticed the landlord had extra-round, high-design toilets in his house. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Their new Catalan friends explained that <i>por supuesto</i> bathrooms were extremely important as a site for contemplation and relaxation. People would reject or desire a house based on its bathrooms.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;">Where am I?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;">What am I doing here?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;">And what happened to my teeth. Do you know?</span><br />
