matt snapped this photo of me when he came to visit east tennessee in november 2007. i drove us out to the country where we could explore, and be free

his name was matthew. he was a shoegaze musician living in reykjavik, iceland. his grandmother had just died, and he wondered about life.

pen pals became phone calls became i'm-in-loves.

we named it the magic horse as i snapped a photo on my film camera. it's flying, it's free.

we yearned to fly like this horse atop a carousel.

Sacred waters in Peru - a mythical boiling river in the Amazon. There, a community opens their doors to those who wish to learn from the plants. This is a 35mm photo from a disposable camera during my visit in January 2018.

Plant medicine is original technology. The ceremony is life. Breath is medicine for all channels to open and clear debris.

Ábrete Corazón is a medicine song that I learned to sing acapella. Last winter, I composed a melody on my small guitar and recorded in my living room with the ancient heater clacking in the background.

The photograph was taken on Fujifilm 400 inside an Olympus OM-2S in 2006.
