Melted, formed, welded under heat ‘n pressure,
fueled by tribulations, profound loss, suffering
and death as well as joy, pride and love …
Bodies, canvas, clay, concepts, conte,
charcoal, emulsions, electricity, fabrics,
feathers, gas, glass, ingot, metal, money
paper,pigment, sound, stone, wood, words …
Will be transformed through
acoustics, blacksmithing, blowing,
building, carving, casting, donating,
electronics, fabricating, filming,
graffitiing, mixing, moving,
muraling, photographing, printing,
recording, rhyming, researching,
science, sculpting, sewing, singing
speaking, throwing, and writing.
The unique, extraordinary expressions
sure to emerge from our hard work
will reveal our truths that are destined
to induce a rich array of
subjective catharses and
inspire regional and national healing.
Just remember, self-doubt can
conquer the greatest vision.
As can perfectionism.
