Stillness Therein: Virginia Mak

Moments of quiet reflection seem too frequent and far between these days.  Today, I’m packing up the last of our belongings as we prepare to leave Western Washington tomorrow morning.  Stillness in the physical and especially mental sense has been eluding me for weeks.  So when I spotted photographer Virginia Mak’s work, the sense of peace she captures completely spoke to my own harried mind.

In these painterly photographs, we see figures moving toward or looking forward to something or somewhere.  There is a sense of peace and hopefulness that what we are looking for may be just around that bend or approach our doorstep any moment.  Figures are keeping watch, looking ahead, ready to move.  So am I.
