Cycles go trans_end
Thinking about cycles in the crust of the earth, and in the passing of generations
A sculptor working in clay, I was fascinated by the continuing re-creation of the earth: erosion, sedimentation, sheets folding into the core, melting, pushing up, consolidation, erosion.... processes repeated in the forming and use of clay. Playing also with thoughts of the passing of generations, as I seem to have become the family archivist, and have to note the coming and going of the young and old - holding on to the records, to trans_end the finality of death?

I have not made any contribution to this project since August, so I thought that I would look through everyone's blogs to get a better picture of things. I am in the UK, and although I too seemed to take on the role of family archivist, I really feel my hands tied because I am here and my family have moved house yet again and I am so scared that my mother has just thrown it all out. - all the evidence, that is. Anyway, I recently started going to pottery classes, having studied through UNISA, and missed out on having some of the fully hands on training, despite really enjoying making sculptures in clay which I have started doing again. I would love to see your work... from across the waters.
Thanks for coming to our February meeting and showing me your work! I am really excited about the games we can play! Let me know if you come right with a photographer and experiment with a photoshoot. I'll be happy to then make a date with you and look at those images and see what kind of games we can play online. Once you get a better sense of what you'd like to do with what you find out, it would be a good idea to draw up a proposal so that we can address the technical issues and set up a team to produce your work online. Let me know.
