NR 15 min
Semi-precious is a portrait of my mother, a retired holistic practitioner framed through her crystals, supplements, jewelry, healing instruments and household adornments. Handwritten labels populate the exteriors of these objects to recall their emotional or spiritual use and are a vital remedy to her memory loss. Geologic and mortal time become enmeshed through weathered landscapes, wrinkled hands, vibrating exercise machines, sound representations of planets, resonant quartz crystals in clock faces and the profile of the oldest earth rock identified, the moon.
