Valle Vidal
September 30, 2015
Valle Vidal is very beautiful. It is located in Northern New
Mexico in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. There are a lot of ponderosa pine
trees, wild rose hips, high grasses and a creek that runs through the meadow
where most of our group is camped. I’ve seen a bald eagle flying in the sky, a
hawk screeching while in flight, a squirrel, a small snake, little fish in the
creek and a lone cow.
On the second night, I saw this huge moon rising on the
horizon. Later there was a full lunar eclipse that we watched together in the
grasses.
Here, at Valle Vidal, I focused on collecting thistle fiber
for papermaking, embroidery and a collaborative project with Harriet Fawcett.
We are doing a stop motion/documentary that has an environmental take on the
classic La Llorona story.
