http://ideasprout.blogspot.com/2011/01/shanty-paradise-in-process.html
Sunday, January 16, 2011. Shanty Paradise In Process. My friend Michelle Summers. Requested some detail shots of Shanty Paradise,. The installation I made last summer at The Barn.

I also now see that it established some fundamental seeds in my experience that have been growing without my full awareness. Now, about 11 years later, in the midst of huge life questions, disillusionment, and self growth I almost accidentally found her again. I signed up for a retreat with her called.
