Visual Storytelling
One of my deep interests is storytelling and taking people on small journeys of discovery. We have been storytellers since the dawn of our time on earth, when we would sit around the night fire sharing tales of the land and the animals and a complex mythology threading its way to distant stars. It was a remembering and a way of deepening awareness and connecting with the spirit of place and time and of grounding oneself in the essence of life itself.
Over the years, I have conceptualised and curated numerous public awareness displays that weave together compelling images and descriptive narratives to share messages about connecting more deeply to the land and becoming aware of wild landscapes and the many creatures that inhabit these environments.
I was very impressed and moved by your signage up Disa Kloof.

BECOMING DEEPLY PRESENT IN THE STILLNESS IN THIS MOMENT
What a Godly moment to experience your ‘Reconnecting with Nature’ in such a beautiful way in the Karoo Garden in Worcester. Really inspiring. Keep up with your work of such high standards. Thanks for sharing it with us.
