A Year in Wilderness Solitude


These photographic images with their captions tell a story of the year I lived in solitude on a small remote island on the coast of southern Chile. My intention in going was to integrate Ph.D. research into the physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual effects of deep wilderness solitude with personal spiritual practice.

My lived experience research and the narrative-style dissertation that has emerged is for the Individual Interdisciplinary Graduate Studies Program at the University of British Columbia.

The images are intended to tell a story, and I believe your experience will be richer it you view the images and comments sequentially through the five seasons I lived in solitude. Thank you for joining me on the journey.
