”I’ve thought often about my 2016 residency at Camargo during the 2020 Coronavirus lockdown. Since my residency the south of France has become increasingly a center point in my life and my art practice and In fact, I am currently locked-down quite nearby in Marseille. Those two months in Cassis in 2016, looking regularly out my window at the ever-changing seascape each day were a sublime period for contemplation and reflection on the act of looking and listening deeply and with intention that have endured in my life and art practice.
