I woke up too early this morning. Decided to walk over to the lake so i didnt set off the alarms in my studio. Beautiful morning… Think i’m feeling a little daunted by this project, its very strange to suddenly be alone in a studio, not surrounded by a dozen other artists. Maybe the culmination of this residency will be my transformation into a hermit. With my computer broken, my only source of entertainment when i get back to my rooms are the books i took from the library and eating a rather large amount of chocolate. Maybe i will go and buy a radio…
Froebel’s key theory seems to be the idea of education through self-activity – that we can only gain knowledge through interaction… i think this too will become a key part of my work here.
