It Takes a While
This video piece is a response to Recipe for an Epiphany. I’m thinking about the seven years that have passed since making Recipe, and the twelve years that have passed since the epiphany itself. I wanted to see what I had learned, to be able to say this is who I am now. But am is a verb, it is the process of being, not a fixed point. Who I am now is permanently unfinished, and I hope I can tell you, with this work, what an unfathomable joy that is.
