Time and Moment

"Red rock. Blue sky. The arch is structured metamorphosis. Once a fin-like tower, it has been perforated by a massive cave-in, responsible now for the keyholes where wind enters and turns. What has been opened, removed, eroded away, is as compelling to me as what remains. Druid Arch - inorganic matter - rock rising from the desert floor as a creation of time."

Such rock formations emerge from Earth processes over hundreds of millions of years; yet, geologic time includes now. Creativity is synthesis, movement, transformation brought about through relationship. Can you feel the Creative Moment - within you, surrounding you?
