DEAREST ……….

The intention in this walk is to drop-in to a series of bodily attunements with the landscape and let these surface in the form of letters. The letters are written as faithfully as possible from the resonance of this encounter.

This land-body exchange has taken on more personal significance since living on an apple farm. Putting my hands in the earth has given me a sense of belonging within this new country I am calling home.

In line with these notions of home and belonging I will take our local bus with my son to his school at Tangkrogen. From there I walk – in the direction of my home – to Norsminde – through forests and along waterways.

At each hourly place of rest I will offer an apple from the farm. It is offered in acknowledgement of children‘s stories and old folktales, to forests and tides, to dreams and archaetypes, to the illegible and the impossible… to the shapes of things we can not see, but only feel.
