Bob Leckridge lives in the middle of Scotland and regularly spends time in Japan and France. His way of seeing the world has been strongly shaped by these three diverse environments and cultures, each of which complements and influences the others. His primary way of engaging with the world is through the "emerveillement du quotidien" (the wonder and amazement of the everyday) Attention to difference, connections, and integration all contribute to an awareness of "becoming not being". The focus on becoming in the present moment creates a continuous dynamic experience of living.
