Since The Beginning | Between Sky & Earth
by Niamh O'Shea
There are some forms of belonging that seem to exist before we have words for them. Since the Beginning is a song to the earth, and to the ancient relationship between our bodies and the ground beneath us. A relationship known not through explanation, but through living: walking, resting, leaving, returning. The earth becomes a presence within the song. Something that has held us without asking anything in return, received what we have laid down, and kept safe what we thought we had lost. Beneath soil and stone is an idea I find myself returning to: that perhaps our connection to the natural world is not something new we need to create, but something much older that we might still recognise. Something we have known since the beginning.
