During the Covid pandemic, the momentum of the daily life slowed down. Outside for solitary expeditions, the familiar transformed into a new kind of magical discovery, as if witnessed for the first time.
It was a time to stop and look at the details in my familiar environment. I felt like a child who with each step and each moment caught a fresh glimpses and new discovery. I learned to look and see things with fresh eyes. Hidden Homes are discoveries and surprises, sometimes humorous, that one can find in their own quiet and solitude. Lisa is continuing her journey looking for new Hidden Homes.
