letterboxes and the existence of anything

Rachel Carr

I was in a yoga class once and the teacher started the lesson by reading from a book I can't tell you the title of because I arrived late and was urgently braiding my hair in the ladies' at the time. Anyway, it was about there being two paths through life -- to accept that everything is incredible and beautiful, or to deny that anything exists at all. For now I want to take photographs that help me (and maybe other people, too) see that everything is incredible and beautiful, especially the commonplace scenes that are usually overlooked.

(I'd eventually like to take photographs that are a denial of the existence of anything, but that might prove more difficult.)
