If you broke into George Odenyo’s office at Delta Corner Annex you would face two puzzling scenarios. One, you wouldn’t be able to nick anything, and two, you’d be hard-pressed to know what he does for a living. This is because his office is bare.
There is a table with a computer. No papers. No trays, no photos of his family. No trophies. There is a lonesome coat hanger and a small glass plaque that his children gifted him for Father’s Day. It brings to mind that quote by Ram Dass: “Emptiness is not really empty, emptiness is full of everything. The ‘everything’ just isn’t manifest.” Or he might just be a minimalist.
