Kachemak Bay State Parks Artist Residency

August 27, 2018

Ya!

Participating in wilderness residencies is such a privilege. I get to be and see places I probably wouldn't experience otherwise. Listening to others, reading, and just plain feet on the ground spending time in the space - I learn so much, become inspired, grow.

My work seldom travels in a straight line, and time is an important component of my practice. I'm still processing the experience. There have been a lot of changes since I kayaked this area thirty years ago. Until the work materializes I can share words, be the eyes for others, give a shout out for the wilderness and a vote for it's preservation.

As a human and environmental advocate I have a responsibility to speak with accuracy. 

as an artist I need to be comfortable taking risks and making mistakes.

At times these forces are at odds.

The purpose of this blog is to supplement the images in the gallery without speaking for the work, to share a little of the back story, and provide insight into my artistic motivations.
