Seeing is believing. See the dragonfly with grid work details in the wings, a metallic body sculpted to futuristic specifications. The Post Natural History by Vincent Fournier introduces a new kind of research which involves delicate details, maybe faux but truly believable. Examine the sculptures mounted on individual boards, titled, and numbered as art. The preface in the opening page goes like this, “The post natural history project is an encyclopedia archive situated somewhere between memory and imagined future. These stories are of possible scenarios in which different living species are modified to better fit our environment as well as adapt to new human desires. Speculative fiction is combined with intention of creating timeless objects of strange beauty that could not exist in the past, the future, or an alternative present.”

I find a way to fearlessly provoke your senses and take you by the heart to whatever it is I’m writing about. My sweet spot is creative writing, but for the last 20 years I have been providing freelance content for publications on sustainability and green practices, design, architecture, fashion, and non-profit charity. Recently all wrapped up in producing my first book. I have bounced from NYC to Indianapolis, but my true home is a lovely small town in Central Pennsylvania where there’s a legit drive-your-tractor-to-school-day.
