Chapter 2
The mythic and the mundane
For Chapter 2, we exult in the mythic and the mundane – why making something ordinary into something extraordinary is one of the most honest paths to human happiness. The tangible pleasure in using one’s own agency, hands, feelings and judgement to meld, shape, touch, handle and craft something unformed and turn it into something beautiful. Milk becomes cheese, fabric becomes clothing and paint on walls becomes a home.
Walking over and around the wet November streets
We begin our seasonal shift to inside living – both of place and mind. Late Autumn and early Winter is the most natural season to think of decorating.
