Gaps, Cracks and Portals
“I see curiosity as a gateway to accessing new realms of understanding, both within ourselves and beyond familiar territory.” Interstices are prominent players in Farquharson’s work. Found at the peripheries of the woods, in the tree canopies or in the rural fieldstone piles, she hopes they invite consideration of the gifts in the gaps of our own perceptions.
“The gaps are the thing…the fissures between mountains and cells the wind lances through, the icy narrowing fjords splitting the cliffs of mystery. Go up into the gaps. If you can find them; they shift and vanish too. Stalk the gaps. Squeak into a gap in the soil, turn, unlock-more than a maple- a universe.” – Annie Dillard, Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
