On a hiking trail outside of Santa Fe, I found a small white journal with no other identifying information than the name, “Senkito.” In an effort to connect with the unknown writer, I follow leads from the journal: a clover, a drawing of a stream, a question written alongside other found musings. I document my performative actions, research, retracings, and recreations as I wonder about the limitations of knowing another human. The more threads I follow, the more I feel as though my search for the stranger leads me only to an encounter with myself. The resulting pieces echo the questions of my search into the unknowable.
