It’s hard to see this. This amount of flooding and the road closure. It is easy to become overwhelmed. After all, we see Earth in a trauma response. With a compromised immunity system. When we cross Earth’s boundaries, Earth crosses ours. You feel this too? And yet Earth never stops being generous. Giving beyond the easily discernible. It tells us to look harder, better. Beyond the ‘road closure’ sign. There is art to be grateful for.

Two pieces of work abstracted from ice. Mostly created on this road.

Willington, Derbyshire, UK.

Work of Alicja Pyszka-Franceschini, 2025.

Oh, by the way, I updated

my photo art portfolio. You can see it here: https://a-credible-dreamer.co.uk/

I have one more post to share soon. Expect a new arrival on Sunday.

I hope you are really taking care of yourself. Make use of the refreshing icy weather if you’re based in this hemisphere. And do what makes you happier and stronger. Speak soon. x
