Instructions for living a life: 

Pay attention. 

Be astonished. 

Tell about it.

—Mary Oliver  

Field Guide is an exploration of the ways in which we discover and exchange knowledge that transform our experience of looking at the world.  Field guides transfigure the invisible to the seen, the foreign to the familiar. A field guide helps us differentiate and identify what is valuable from what could be dangerous.  In an era of ever-shortening attention spans, art can be a field guide to help us pay attention, to help us be astonished.
