The Nest

During her contemplative walks, Lynn Alleva Lilley (US) began to observe and photograph the many small details in the woods around Sligo Creek. The shimmering winter light, the tiny curling tendrils of a climber, the dry grasses in winter, the fresh green in spring. In her silent movement, she also met the deer, the birds, the cicada, the snake, the turtle and many more characters that inhabit this piece of land along the creek. Lilley manages to arouse what is not directly perceptible to the senses. We connect to the vegetation and animals, not as the ‘superior’ human, but as part of the ecosystem that is The Nest.
