Caribou Lichen

Composer(s): Stephen Lias

Consider the lichen of the Alaskan tundra. It does not hurry – patiently weaving itself into the fabric of the earth over centuries.It thrives in scarcity – mysteriously binding elements of air and rock into fertile soil. It is beautiful – a fragile network of branching filaments – an analog of antlers, river tributaries, root systems. It teaches that growth is not measured by haste, nor survival by conquest. To persist – to take what is given and make of it something quietly enduring – is wisdom enough
