Why windowsills
A window (coming from Norsk word 'Wind Eye') is the eyes to the interior and exterior of my existence. Without them, I am blind to the comings and goings of my own thoughts.
A windowsill is the one part of a house that belongs to both the inside and the outside. It's where the light lands first, and where things gather that nobody has quite decided about: the jug that never gets put away, the plant doing better than anyone expected, a stone brought home from a beach. My ancestors, working with their hands in fields and on the land, were enslaved so much that windows were taxed at a premium, a silent haranguing of their souls' light. Of course they made music and raised floors with heavy bróga despite the darkness, but the songs are still dark and sad and I think what song would they have made with bigger windows.
I live in one of these old cottages, and I paint them because they're small and honest and full of weather and ancestral memory. This calendar puts twelve of them together, so every month you get a different window to look through while you're looking out of your own.
