Further Thinking
| In 1990, age 20, beginning my studies in architecture, i designed an orange photographic poster titled 'breakthrough your barriers'. 33 years later, having evolved into an artist, educator, and entertainer, i found myself designing an orange dice with similar intentions, from the widest perspective, a dice prompt to twiddle with, while pondering progress. As a parent i adored the continual quest of young people to gain knowledge, I loved the why? why? why? phase. As a grownup i have been lucky enough to earn a living by creating ideas and asking questions, which have enabled me to exhibit and perform in 30 countries. I am grateful and fortunate. We have the unique luxury of perceiving the future, so we can influence and shape that future, if we put our mind to it. [p.s. thinking deeply caaan be fun too, when the results emerge] I only heard "be the change you want to see happen" when i was 40. It made a lot of sense to me (as my intentions in life are positive), and I try to use it in my progress as much as i can. Eventually i discovered Nonviolent Communication, which i felt guided me to focus even more on positive intentions, for myself and for others. It's a delight hidden within our global plight, and can be found here >>> Much of my installation work has looked at issues in our world, we often think there is nothing we can do, but we can do something in our own realm, and it starts in the mind, with the potential we all have to do something positive. The mind is the guiding light for everything we do. I can't tell anyone what to do, but i can help encourage others to think about it. If you ask with a smile, it's amazing what can happen. I set out to create something like this, and here it is. Best of luck to you! |
