Daniel McNeill

Daniel McNeill

One day when I was on Easter Island, I hiked into its roadless back-country. There I discovered hundreds of basalt heads, toppled and broken, just as warriors had left them from the civil war. And I found it almost impossible not to peer under the great blocks, try to find a nose or mouth. The back of a stone head is stone, but its face is life itself. Faces surround me as I write. Nearby sits a wooden Easter Island head, carved by the sculptor whose family hosted me there. I have a Maori relief of two lovers? Tattooed faces, and a Carnival mask from Venice, too opulent to wear. But best of all is the photo of my wife Rosalind, who peeks out from behind a jungle frond in Hawaii. It captures not only her splendid face, but a moment of her mind, a mix of curiosity, uncertainty, and delight. Her look is inexpressible but instantly recognizable, and for me this face is more than life itself.
