Cold Mountain Moon
Cold Mountain video series contemplates human relationships with the natural environment. The title, Cold Mountain, is attributed to a legendary Tang era (618–907) recluse’s poetry. Two crazy hermits giggling and pointing at the moon are repeated in Asian painting, referring to the Daoist sage-hobo poet, Han Shan, and his friend, Shide, living in nature. Poet Gary Snyder’s 1950’s translations of selected Cold Mountain poems, and characterisation of the hermit, are depicted in Jack Kerouac’s 1958 novel, The Dharma Bums.

...and the last from Goth Galicia doors etc...for now...
...doors are the most important places. The Roman god Janus guarded them and looked both ways with his head facing back and front...to the past and future. He is the oldest of gods from the time of Romulus and Remus. He is the god of doors, portals, passageways and transitions - concrete and abstract, life/death, beginning/end, youth/adulthood, rural/urban, war/peace. Transformations and shifts. He ruled over all life changes, birth, death, harvest, planting, seasons, new beginnings. He held the key to heaven. Janus was celebrated first before any other god at all ceremonies.
Goth as a state of mind and Gothic architecture - more photographs of doors and portals photographed in Galicia, an area of Visigoth, Moor, Romanesque, local and Roman influences...
