What a gift of a comment, thank you. I am (embarassingly) unfamiliar with Le Guin’s work, I’ve been meaning to read her for ages. I do have a copy of Ishi, but that’s her parents. I looked up the theory, and it’s very moving. Thank you for sharing that with me. Now I have a good way to enter her work
Here's a pdf of her original essay (short and sweet but so good... has greatly influenced my own work). I also highly recommend Always Coming Home and think you'd like it given your writings and art here!
Beautiful work and words! Reminds me of Ursula Le Guin's Carrier Bag theory.
