I’AM…
I wanted to make the process of art making more alive. I wanted to be in the forest. I placed my art materials in my car. I went to the forest and started playing. It consumed me. I felt so energized, so different. Was it the trees? The forest ? Or me?
I wanted to connect with the force of nature. The trees felt familiar. I felt accepted. I felt loved. It was fun too. I didn’t know what exactly I was doing, only that it really made me shine.
It was better with closed eyes. I wanted to sense that force. I wanted to feel that love. I wanted to be that aliveness. I blinded myself, to not be disturbed. I kept that feeling within. Allowing myself to be guided by that force.
My materials have different shapes, and textures. I experiment and play with my materials. I hang them on trees, I place them up against tree trunks,.
I wear them. How can I navigate wearing all this stuff, and be almost blinded? How does it feel? I invited other people to join me in the forrest, it could be fun. Maybe they would feel the energy too? Trusting our own nature. Within.
