How do you find beauty and meaning in the most ordinary things when
your life is being pulled away from you by the most extraordinary
circumstances? On May 4, 2013, Cat Gwynn found a sizable lump in
her right breast. Ten days later the acclaimed photographer was
diagnosed with Triple Negative breast cancer—a disease long
feared. Her mother had succumbed to breast cancer after a five-year
battle. Now it was Cat’s turn to live with it. This meant sitting
with mortality, difficult side effects, and every other uncertainty
being thrown her way. As the treatment protocol intensified, her
immune system became more compromised, requiring limited exposure
to the world around her. Cat mapped it out: her day-to-day
existence was now reduced to about a ten-mile radius. Surrendering
to this confined reality, Cat decided to engage in a daily practice
of seeking out images with her smartphone that would connect her to
the immediacy of life. There was no filtering what she found, only
a genuine curiosity to see things as they were and how she chose to
frame them. Every thing, detail, and day mattered, all inspiration
for mindful expression. Cat didn’t set out to make an art project
about her experience with cancer, but over time realized it was a
conceptual way to show her quest for well-being and willingness to
uncover aspects of the world that are normally overlooked. By being
present with deep truth, she was opening herself up to her own
healing and reclaiming life in the most profound way. • • •
Wellness is a state of being, no matter the circumstances you’re
dealt. 10-Mile Radius is a wake up call. A gratitude practice in
motion that moves through limitations and becomes a compass back to
one’s self.
