Tsunami

 

The text in “Tsunami,” by colour choice and shape, could be objects lying on a beach. Contemplating the vastness of space and the relative insignificance of humanity makes us wonder about the meaning of life itself. My studio is on the edge of a mesa in Taos, New Mexico; the western view is of big sky following the curve of the earth as far as the eye can see. Living with a view of infinity reminds me of my own insignificance. Carol Starr
