That's what i'd like to do. It's a different Winter. I am home much more than i ever have been that i can remember. Maybe all my life, really, and i guess that's true. Maybe that's why it's feeling so different. I can look forward to Spring when this will mean many things of Doing Out Side. But in this month of January and then some into February, ….well…there is this unusual to me, Space. So i have been a lot Lost in Thought. That's nice, but not exactly how i want to be, Lost in Thought. It goes Nowhere. But when it occured to me that i could Invent a Winter self….there was a spark of Interest. and two things came to mind.
Natural History
Surreal
????? How do these relate? How could I relate?
this from the Other day. The image of the Cloth from the printer, torn out, pasted on a piece of paper then the stick and strings drawn. I have since mailed it away. But it was the way i imagined this Cloth could be, keeping only to itself.
and although it's way too soon, i couldn't help wanting to know if it would work. So this. Of course, the threads can't be wibbly like they are in the drawing….the weight of the Cloth brings them straight, but it Can happen. This is just an experiment…what thread to use will need to be discovered and this is Not the right stick. The Right Stick will be an issue. But it can happen. So, ok. Good.
and i thought maybe my Grandfather's copper wire could work and remain wibbley, so i found it and no. It is as fine as thread. But finding it, i smiled, because of how some keep the family china or linens. I have kept as total and complete Treasure, my grandfather's copper wire. I used it a lot when i made the fiber figures….wrapping their wrists with it, dangling things. I only have this much. This much to last a lifeTime. I love this wire more than can possibly be understood.
