This blog provides a way to present and post updates on my current body of work, entitled "Promised Land." This work is an investigation of nature as seen through the lens of religion, particularly my personal experience with religion, which reveals not nature, but a hope for salvation, a fabrication of idols or a fulfillment of prophecy. At stake here is an intimate relationship with the Earth's true natural environments. Also at stake is an acceptance of responsibility for our influence, positive or negative, on these environments. In the gulf between the world around us and the world of our fantasies lies the suspended anticipation for the fulfillment of promise.
