Beauty in the Breakdown

Decay


“Time is the longest distance between two places.”
― Tennessee Williams

There’s something inherently beautiful about the decaying, the abandoned, and the forgotten.  It’s not just the textures, patterns, and colors that draw us in, but also the untold stories.

Ruins hold countless memories, and we can only hope to uncover a fraction of the stories their past holds. From the mundane to the extraordinary, there is a sense that these totems of the bygone have seen it all and are bursting at the seams with untold tales. Wisdom and lore that will remain forever untapped.


It's the Little Things

“It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see.”
― Henry David Thoreau

Finding beauty in your everyday life can be difficult.  You’re bound to get caught up in the routine, the tasks, the “have-tos.”  It’s easy to overlook the way that light catches that piece of paper in the office in just that right way, or the one solitary leaf that has found its way to the middle of the parking lot.

I tend to miss them as well, but when they’re revealed to me that’s where I find grace.  A moment of respite from the un-ending churn to appreciate the simple, the delicate, the beautiful.
