Just like the mineshaft's photography ventilation system that night, this whole system is operating backwards. If you listen carefully, you can hear that little metal box clicking like mad. If there is to be a future for humanity, we'll have to look no further than beneath our own feet. Right where I stand today, photography my ancestors lived by an indefinitely sustainable whole-life system. I believe that the possibility of such a system for photography all of humanity continues to exist, even though the forces of modernity suppress this possibility. Notions of free markets, profits, privilege, and the dominance of humanity over Mother Earth will have to go if we are to survive. To understand our conflicts over power in the material world, we need to look inside ourselves, into the nonmaterial world, for the original spark. That's why I go back, again and again, to my extended family's sweatlodge.
