“I think of the trail system as The Long March. In part this refers to Chinese history but, more importantly, for me it describes the journey we make when we walk the path with an attentive mind. It’s a slow march from the lake up the hill, through fern forests and open fields to the highest spot on the property. It’s a trip through time and space, that moves from conception to birth to death. I’ve used trees to tell this story – fallen logs, branches and sections of tree trunks – because they embody the regeneration that occurs in nature.”
