In between. That is the place where these woven vessels sit and from where they
are guiding my artistic practice. They conjure the permanence of clay and the
ephemerality of fiber, the rigidity of one material against the flexibility of another.
They call to the ancient yet hold space in the contemporary. As vessels on the
brink of overlap between functional and sculptural they leave me professionally
and creatively navigating that intersection.
I started this project in 2012, so this is the fifteenth year of adding to the over 5000 drawings accumulated. I’ve never missed a day, so I can’t stop now. I rely on doing them to organized myself: to remember the who, what, where, when, and how of life, but also to understand what it all might mean and to record how it feels. Doing them is very cathartic.
