Mending Walls

In Mending Wall, Robert Frost instructs: “something there is that doesn’t love a wall.” This something is Nature. I am working on a new photo project to explore the places where Nature defies the boundaries we set superficially as we label, map, and divide up the earth.

Before I built a wall I’d ask to know

What I was walling in or walling out

And to whom I was like to give offence

Something there is that doesn’t love a wall
