Michelle sent me a link to the 40th Annual Juried Fiber Artists of San Antonio Exhibit that i think was on Deanna's facebook page. I looked at the many still shots of the Exhibit, the people attending, the fiber art displayed. I tried to imagine my most recent Cloth, Earth Dreaming, hanging somewhere there among them. There was a total disconnect. The cloth was like a dot on the wall.
Then today, there was this, hanging on the gate
4 publications…Gallery Guide books for Santa Fe. LOTS of ART inside.
so i knew it was from my down and across the road neighbor who was married to a Native woman, had kids with her, she and their daughters now have WORK in permanent collections of the Smithsonian…traditional dress and beading. The Gallery Guides are a year or so old, but it doesn't matter. It's ART. Santa Fe Art.
and then at Deb G's blog, beecreative.typepad.com, her post of yesterday entitled local with things about a book of Vicki Robin's and a great Ted Talk, and then Deb said "I read it and think, This is a community i belong to".
There was constant Wind today. Not GREAT Wind, just incessant Wind and it was somewhat overcast and well, for me, cold. But i spent time with the Goats, looking at their individual faces, how their faces are all different, one to another. Saskia had sent me a link to some beautiful photographs of Goats. Goats. Goats are my community, i am thinking. Goats.
