New Work: Antique Orchid || Decorative Print [Update]

May 6, 2017January 7, 2019Leave a comment

One of a series of orchids which bloomed during a study retreat. I’ll be making this available as a large canvas print as well, so do check back for an update.

During my four month retreat, a lot changed in the world. I was hosted by a professor of deep ecology in Bloomington, Indiana while he was traveling and teaching throughout Europe and points East, from January through April. The country was quite different upon their return and frankly, so was I. I’ll be writing about those changes here, doing a bit of traveling myself and sharing more of my photographic work. Something I’ve neglected far too long after an 8 year stint as a media analyst.

I’m choosing beauty. And also finding permaculture is a means of designing a life of beauty and abundance.

My psyche thanks me almost daily for ditching analysis and following my heart and my photographer’s wandering eye. ~ Gabrielle

People Need Nature

“Nature doesn’t need people. People need nature. Human beings are part of nature. Nature is not dependent on human beings to exist. Human beings, on the other hand, are totally dependent on nature to exist. The growing number of people on the planet and how we live here is going to determine the future of nature. And the future of us. Nature will go on, no matter what. It will evolve. The question is, will it be with us or without us?” ~ from the movie “Nature is Speaking“

Your Deep Ecology Moment

The way in which the “spiritus absconditus” speaks through the author of the first part of the “Aurora consurgens,” reminds one of the spirit of earth in Faust. This spirit speaks to Faust, who writes down what it says. The author of our text continues later:

“Turn to me with your whole heart and do not spurn me

because I am weak and black, for the sun has changed my colour

and the depths have hidden my countenance,

and the earth is corrupted and infected in my operations,

because darkness had been laid upon it.

Because I am held fast in the mire of the deep

and my substance is not revealed,

therefore I cried out of the depths

and from the abysses of the earth

doth my voice speak unto you.”

~ Carl Jung, ETH Lecture 16 May 1941, Page 157
