Apologies for the prolonged silence-I was caught in a sand storm, and have been wandering the deserts for nigh on a year. I’ve been pricked by prickly pears, sand stuck in my throat and virtually everywhere, I recycled my urine. My lips cracked from thirst, my skin turned brown and peeled in patches, the vultures licked my bones clean. I ran across oasis and hallucinated wildly from eating the wrong cactus fruit. While I was merely lost, others came to hide, to seek treasure or guidance, to get clean, come of age.
Nacer Khemir’s, the director of “Wanderers Of The Desert” illustrated above said: ‘There is a Tuareg proverb that says: “There are lands that are full of water for the well-being of the body, and lands that are full of sand for the well-being of the soul.” The desert is a literary field and a field of abstraction at the same time. It is one of the rare places where the infinitely small, that is a speck of sand, and the infinitely big, and that is billions of specks of sand, meet. It is also a place where one can have a true sense of the universe and of its scale.’
