Orienting ourselves in the world

© Chuck Hoffman / Genesis + Art Studio

FROM OUR JOURNAL PAGES:

The visible is how we orient ourselves in the world. It remains our principle source of information about the world. Art reminds us of what is absent. What we don’t see anymore. Art is not only a mnemonic device used to remember events in our time here. Art addresses a larger memory. A memory less topical, art reminds us not only of what we don’t know but what we recognize as familiar.
