Anna Jackson lives in Jackson Street, Island Bay, Wellington, New Zealand, where she keeps hens and grows vegetables (mostly radishes), and is an Associate Professor in English literature at Victoria University of Wellington. This photo was taken in a lake near Rangataua, central North Island, and can be read, if you want, as an optimistic sort of updating of the image from the Orpheus story of the poet’s disembodied head which continues to sing as it is swept downstream.
