In the shocking aftermath of a hurricane devastating a mountain area that is not usually at the epicenter of hurricanes, the author kept an art journal documenting two aspects of the year after Hurricane Helene deranged much of her community. One thread that is carried out on each page of this book focuses on her practice of making drawings of at least one beautiful and joyous thing each day during the first year after the event. The second records through photo-collages a reminder of the very long and arduous process of rebuilding, remediating, and renovating the built environment.. The contrast between the seamless way that Nature repairs herself and recycles parts that cannot be healed and the often less-elegant ways that humans remediate and repair their constructions makes for interesting contrasts. The 58 selected pages were originally posted on social media throughout the year.
