a lot.

“A lot.”: I walked through a space this week with its owner and a videographer. It was a dark, virtually empty, under restoration, old church that’s being transformed into a restaurant this summer. I asked the videographer, a former student of mine, what she saw in the space - again, dark, damp, a work in progress. She paused for a second before answering. “A lot,” she said. As an artist, her brain and her eye see things I don’t see. And vice versa. 

Questionforya: When was the last time you asked someone else what they saw in a place, a person, or an experience? 

And did you actually listen to the answer?
