People build deep connections to places.

Our bodies are clocks tuned to the seasons and senses of a place.

What we feel, see, hear, smell, and taste becomes part of us.

Through the process of harvesting and documenting native plant species from a place steeped in my own family history—and even distilling my own amaro—I deepened my essential relationship with this place.

I sought to condense meaning from the vapor of memory and distill the essence of a place…the genius loci.
