...& on...




Working in the space this week has been really positive for me in that it has enabled me to get out of the rut that I was in...a new perspective. I felt I had been re-hashing the same thing over & over, but I have finally made progress!
The pinhole technique I see as an alternative form of drawing. It ensures the image will remain, won't fade, as it penetrates it is embedded, the memory not forgotten. I have a long standing relationship with stitch. {Ta Ma!} I find hand sewing very therapeutic & really enjoy it once I get into it. I decided to incorporate it into my work at present so there was a connection between each pinhole image. I left the threads loose as I wanted it to appear like a flow, a train of thought even, although the threads don't correspond they are similar. The lingering thread trying to connect. People often experience the same event or moment in time, yet their memories of it are varied. The pinholes and thread are fragile, like memories, in that often they are easily forgotten. I am trying to link memories & moments in time. Same experience different connection. Moments in time...fragments of time, space & history.
