- Metamorphosis arose from a startling scene I came across in my garden: a caterpillar in the process of pupating. I felt shy as if in the presence of something sacred. It seems considerate to turn our gaze during those awkward moments when our friends or children are in mid transition: trying out new selves.
- This photograph was before the glaze had been applied to the white surface.
