This edition is inspired by a Wabi sensibility: the appreciation of transient beauty.

In the exploration of puddles and outdoor experiences with my toddler during the Cape's winter rains, I found myself relishing the abundance of water after such a long period of drought. In remembering the conservation of my use of water only a year before, I found new beauty in the streams that filled the mountain paths. 

Indulging in the long gloom that characterises a winter moonrise, this print combines a lithographic and woodcut technique to evoke the beauty of the moon reflected in running water.
