Stories of places, art & belonging

Issue No. 6 — May 2025

Dear friends,

As May unfolds in Sicily, I keep returning to the idea of homes without doors. The sea near Tre Fontane was unusually quiet last week — and I wondered, as I often do, what it means to truly arrive somewhere.

Thank you for reading.

In southern Sicily, near a grove of olive trees, there’s a house I’ve painted more times than I can count. It doesn’t belong to anyone. It stands there, stubborn and silent, not asking to be understood.

What is it about these structures that call us back — again and again — to the canvas?

They aren’t nostalgic. They aren’t even remembered. They’re imagined shelters — abstract symbols of protection, longing, or maybe even obsession.

Titel: A Stone from the shoreling

I picked it up in February. It was cold, round, and surprisingly heavy for its size. It hasn’t left my desk since.
