Jo Kalinowski, The Web (PLACES 2023)

This image is part of an ongoing project "The Empty Nest," which chronicles my family's transition from city life to the countryside and the subsequent decade of personal growth that ensued. My daughters moved out and the nest emptied, I found myself reconnecting with the land, its symbols, and its metaphors, reflecting on the past. The project documents our deepening relationship with nature and how we learned to appreciate the unpredictable and powerful forces that shaped our lives.
