“Wind, Waves + Water” Seneca Stone Art by Michael Callahan with a live acoustic performance.
In early childhood, I spent hours collecting shells and stones on various beaches around the US with my parents and grand parents. Searching for the right stones is a type of meditation. I am inspired by the vertically stacked shale-stones formed by waves near the waters edge of Seneca Lake. I like to think that my best work is achieved when I get out of the way of myself and let the stones take me where they want to go, as close to nature as possible.
