“A smattering of materials that have brought me inspiration here at the Tallgrass Artist Residency. My favorite would have to be @prairiedivination, a deck created by @mllemegan & @lannwheeler. Each time I pull a card — whether Milkweed, or Sensitive Briar, or Turkey Vulture, or the White-Tailed Deer — I feel the care, creativity, and wisdom that fed the creation of this deck, and simultaneously l glimpse another layer of the earthly and spiritual complexities this ecoregion holds.” — Daniel Kessel

“Had a chance to visit the Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve over the weekend, wholly unlike anywhere else I’ve ever traveled. Shared the Windmill Pasture with roaming bison. Meditated on the words of poet Denise Low: “The tallgrass prairie stirs the imagination not because it is empty, but because it is vast.” – from her essay “Touching the Sky.”” – Daniel Kessel

"My first morning waking up in the Flint Hills, and I'm honored and grateful to begin my time with the Tallgrass Artist Residency. The prairie is a dramatic shift from my usual daily life in New Jersey/New York, but this region also forms an important part of my family's history. Walking through the fields, feeling the wind on my skin, hearing the intermittent freight trains, I'm already struck by the magic of reconnecting with this landscape." – Daniel Kessel
