Gee, where to start . Everyone here knows that what we are seeking is not absolute. Perhaps it’s impossible to even achieve an approximation. How do we notate a nuance , a transient gesture in amongst a stream of others and make sense of it? What it is to be human, to be present in that moment…in that movement? As an object maker, in the moment when I am most present to that process of making something…I find I am inarticulate. The words don’t even make it to my throat. They don’t exist anywhere I can access. There’s a short circut somewhere. Yet everything seems to be working in concert in my making moment. How can I tell you the story then? How can I take you inside and let you see all the parts working as one? Not separate. One. I have only been able to tell you of shocking discovery-that I am inarticulate in the moment and I want to share much more. I want to understand much more of others too. Access. How do I access this . What language will deliver the infinitessimal sublties of what it is to be human in these moments?
So this project is an experiment in many ways. Thinking through the body is all I know how to do. How can I tell you about it? The art-making process.Perhaps I have to be willing to let go of something in order to relate.
