Its always nice to have a mid week revelation, mine was realising I was not doing what I thought I was.
I have labeled my art as ceramic painting because it's he simple sentence that most effectively communicates my idea to anyone, but after looking at what I do throughout my media and pieces, its not just that.
Some are made of ceramic, but some are made of hot glue and watercolor, or foil,wood and acrylic... and so I needed to question what I am doing with such materials and means. What is the purpose. ..
And I learn't that by categorizing my pieces into ceramic and painting they are limited by those disciplines particular constraint, i.e painting's canvas shapes, and that is what is getting me stuck at and investigation block.
I don't care for those limits when I make - its not about the painting discourse - I'm making fresh entities. Unique items that struggle to exist and preach happiness despite their journey. They are a hopeful cheer for the awkward, a smile for the odd, an encouragement for individuality!
