There’s a photograph by Masao Yamamoto that has haunted me for years; it’s a tiny 4×6 toned black and white picture of a lone white cloud suspended over a goal post in a dark empty field. It was like a punch to the stomach when I first saw this piece hanging on a wall at an art fair. I couldn’t afford it so I spent all day hovering around it. Every year after that I would go visit this photograph, sneaking up on it to see if I still felt the same way. I constantly search for a similar goal post when I am out in the world but that picture cannot exist twice. That’s what is so amazing about photography.

Seven years later it was given to me as a surprise gift by a very dear friend. It now hangs in my studio right next to my desk. I stare at it every day and it’s as magical and mysterious to me today as the day I first saw it. How is that possible?
