“All the sun long it was running”

“All the sun long it was running” is a verse from the Dyan Thomas poem, "Fern Hill" (p. 1945). describing the day passing time through the sun and the harmony and wonder of being in a landscape that is pastoral, bucolic and reminiscent of Prince Edward County (PEC). A landscape surrounded by water that at times can be tempestuous and wild and at other times serene and undisturbed.

Inspired by the poem’s essence of a youthful journey of wandering, this project is an exploration of moments often unnoticed. Moments of stillness and unexpected pause. The things we sometimes only realize in our youth when the days are long and we find ourselves lost in the landscape, open to awe, the elements, discovery and appreciation.
