So Jonathan, is it destruction as preservation here? Because to motivate your energy to move and crash an object into something else at your will of you vision you have committed yourself to a certain path... You are lying there in the middle of the frame and also where you placed your camera... lots to process.
This ritual and the one that preceded it were a pair — the first (Use a Hammer) was about using destruction to break free of the constraints of past stories, and the second (Hall of Mirrors) was about integrating the broken pieces to create a new and larger wholeness.
That last (beautiful) shot feels acutely symbolic in and of itself. Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable. It's inspiring!
Thanks so much, Blake! Hope to see your world in Vermont sometime this summer.
