As we learn from James Joyce, life is full of little and big epiphanies. On my last day at the Tyrone Guthrie Centre at Annamakherrig there was a partial eclipse. I tried to capture the moon covering a portion of the sun through the reflections in the nearby lake. All of life, if we are to consider Plato as well as Joyce, is a reflection of reality.
For two weeks, with an eclectic assortment of artists, writers, thinkers and creative spirits, I had the opportunity to reflect on numerous epiphanies. What follows are some of the images of this experience, including a morning spent with Seamus Heaney and a week of travel with my husband in recognition of our 32nd anniversary.
This experience was both an epiphany and a partial eclipse--with just enough Irish music, beer, and poetry to remind me that life is lived in the layers as well as in the moments of transcendence.
