The Sacred Spud ®

                                       

In March of 1996, in my Tucson kitchen, I found a perfectly shaped valentine potato in a ten pound sack of otherwise ordinary potatoes.  I then left for a month to my mother’s native home, Ireland, where the Sacred Heart is the national icon. When I returned the potato had sprouted magical fractal aorta, a perfect gazinter and gazouter. It was a real milagro, a sacred heart potato, far more miraculous than any Jesus in the Tortilla or Mary in the rusty water heater. I took photographs (digital wasn’t happening yet) thereby preserving the miraculous presence of The Sacred Spud for the world to see.

In these times of fake miracles on grilled cheese  sandwiches and untrue political and religious leaders, the world wants to see the calm natural presence and naked organic truth of The Sacred Spud.
