A year of observation and reflection. Of snapshots, soundbites, and tiny
stories. Of kōans, riddles, and magic tricks. Of meditations and
revelations. A year of haiku. Artist, writer, designer, and musician
Jeff Mellin shares his year-long project to chronicle, in both words and
images, the micro-moments of day-to-day life raising his three young
boys. "In a sense, writing the year of haiku was like taking photographs
without a camera. I learned to see these haiku moments around me,
wherever I was, because I told myself I had to. It wasn't so much
finding beauty or meaning in everyday things, but knowing I could find
beautiful or meaningful things everyday." Illustrated with 60 black &
white photographs.
