Koans are the Zen way of asking questions that have no answer, presenting realities that make no sense. Students are invited to spend time with unknowingness in order to learn the art of befriending its ambiguity.

These koans evolved out of a decade's sitting with my disability and it's unrelenting invitation to exist within a body that defies reason or understanding.

Please be patient for the images to appear.
