註釋Cries and Whispers from the Salt Song Trail is a record of a few days of travel in the Four Corners region of the Southwest. More specifically North East Arizona in Tuba City, Hopi Mesas and Navajo Nation territory. The book is a combination of drawings and writings about the sacred places and people I encountered along the way. The book deals with everyday encounters, oral history, the mundane and searching for the spiritual through pilgrimage. The sites that I visited have their own histories and are sacred to different people for different reasons. A few of these sites carry the weight of colonialism, conflict with U.S government and struggles for resistance. Mostly, I wanted to know how people pursue their way of life and find happiness in certain adverse situations such as a harsh landscape, foreign domination or lack of resources.
