Frost Window #1, Revere Mss, 1957

(copyright by Paul Caponigro/respective copyright holders)

The photographs of Paul Caponigro appear out of the flux and flow of his life somewhat as crystals are formed. Once formed, his images seem independent. But this is not entirely true, so to indicate some of the connections Paul's words are included. From the words some of the currents in his life can be seen, and something of the struggle by which the crystaline images came to him.
If we see his images simply and directly, we may find the image-crystals dissolve into our own lives. They may engender calm or turbulence, being or love, or who knows what is in store for each of us.
