“In 2018, Chickechick, an Araucona chicken, was mauled by a dog that came into my yard. Severely wounded and near death, I brought her into my house where I attended to her every need. She lived in my sunroom for four months. During this time I felt her vulnerability become trust as she recovered. A deep bond developed between us that expanded my heart – – love does heal.
The ordeal of saving her life, caring for her wounds, and watching her go from being unable to move, to standing, walking, and eventually laying an egg, changed something in me. My eyes and heart were opened to the profound mystery that lies beyond a perceived experience.
As a result, I was able to view my 35 years of photography in a whole new way. I saw that through vulnerability, trust, and inner guidance, I had captured the profound mystery of connection between each person and the setting in which I placed them. The symbiotic relationships in each photo create a mythical playground for infinite interpretation – – beyond a personal experience.” – Ann Fuller
