Sometimes you just need to go home. And I have. Today I read Jane Boyer’s a-n blog a second time. Reversed the order and read from post #1.
I feel better now.
You can read about Jane’s current practice and the metaphor behind ‘Blending Primaries’ at the link below. And I suggest you do.
For me, her idea of ‘developing three distinct art practices – studio practice, art writing and curating into one full-time activity’ has been a revelation.
Maybe it has been a fear of ‘tooting my own horn’ or the lack of a formal background in art that has contributed to my struggle to define my practice, but it is amazing to me that I have not considered in any formal way the impact of my curatorial work on who I am and what I do.
As I look at the themes in the posters at right, this strikes me as hilarious. Gosh, it is easy to get lost in the woods.
And what a good feeling when you find a breadcrumb trail before the birds do.
Best birthday present ever.
