I would like to thank Ucross’s leadership and staff for having the confidence in me to participate as a curator of this exhibit. I would also like to thank Steven, Jeremy, and Danielle; I have been honored to be involved with these great creatives. They have the power to find the words, designs, or thoughts to put into a poem or photograph to speak to the power of the language of the land. Like them, I also had a stay at Ucross and experienced many of the same feelings that they have expressed, specifically in terms of the solitude and freedom that exists in that space and place of Ucross. Most importantly, these artists made me feel emotions that I tend to keep close to myself; this is an impactful exhibit to bring to the public. I hope it brings viewers what it has brought me, for it is the language of the land that heals.
