Up to the Mountain
In spring 2007 I heard of a couple who had a church and art project in the north of The Netherlands, so I approached them with a simple idea: let me live in your tower. It was in this room, plain, meditative and warm that I finally overcame my fear of spiders. For the rest of the time, I spent cleaning bricks and speaking with local residents, who braved the rickety old ladder to sit with me.
