A FRESH PERSPECTIVE

17.01.2010

A fresh perspective is always something that is encouraged in art or in life. Over the past few months I have been more than struggling with this very thing within my art practice. I gave myself the challenge to pull my practice apart and try to rebuild it in a coherent way. The pulling apart bit is still ongoing and amid the frustration I have accepted that this is how it is at the moment. I am unsure of when it will become coherent OR if it ever will. January is always an appropriate time for reflection, however on reflection maybe I have been doing too much of this and not enough doing OR making. Questioning my position as an artist and even if I am one has come too much to the front of my head in recent months that it has stopped the art and making process from occurring. So enough thinking, and more doing is probably the answer. I have a few ideas for some quick pieces that may interest me plus the purchasing of a tightrope may come sooner than I had initially thought. My lessons on the lace knitting machines are going well and it has encouraged me to think more and more about my body in relation to equipment within space. Balance is starting to unearth itself once again, hence the need to acquire a tightrope.
