After I was assaulted on Chicago’s lakefront, I immediately went back to the site of the attack.  It felt necessary to see where it had happened in order to make it real.  I envisioned creating a landscape of photos–both the site of terror intertwined with a landscape of peace and beauty where I grew up in Vermont.  The installation became part of an exhibit titled, “Off the Beaten Path”, which traveled internationally for two years. The caption for the piece is a quote from the book, Working With Available Light: A Family’s World After Violence, by Jamie Kalven. “The day beckons. She runs among trees. Hidden in the radiant green a man waits. In hate-blinded hands, darkness waits.”
