I am working on manipulating images in embroidery at this time.
While I work I listen to books on my I-Pod
Krakatoa is what I am listening to at the moment.
You can find the book in my book box at the right side.
My interest in The Silk Road
is linked to my interest in the impact of technology; how it changes the world, as we know it.
The trading that came about in spices and silk, such a long time ago,
impacted commerce and exploration, discovery and innovation,
which led to the world being as it is.
The internet is the great equalizer, now.
Images and ideas come to me in my work
as I ponder what I read.
Volcano images are personal iconic symbols,
they creep into my artwork.
As a child I wanted to know about this.
My imagination would be filled with what ifs.
What if that dormant volcano came to life?
Why did they stop being active. . .
Below is a 3D image of Mt. Fuji
I found this image today and realized that here is another instance
of a connection with something that is in the air.
See we are connected.
If we were only big enough or small enough
we could prove that.
I contemplate moving around between the atoms in my minds eye.
What you do or do not do matters to me.
