Fascinating how an emergency situation not only weeds out the honest people in your life, but completely changes your way of thinking. While taking pictures of my sutured appendage it enlivened new, beautiful, metaphorical themes and projects.
I started small to get my creative juices flowing, adding to my book of collages. A bottle of pills spilling over a background of colorful painted spots [an image inspired from a line in the movie about Jean-Michel Basquiat]. The other is an act of release; freeing oneself, to escape from whatever may be holding you back - society, conformity, addiction... as indicated by the picture of a half-smoked cigarette in a pile of makeup powder.
Mediocre? Even Cheesy? Perhaps, but my big ingenious idea is yet to come. Still working out details, I only have a short time frame to do it, so it will come real soon.
