Poly-means many is the project that I am pursuing, even though I did not receive the grant. Gregg is lending some technical help, and as always is a sounding board, but he’s insisting that I learn to swim (make a sculpture) on my own.
I have been gathering thoughts and ideas since Sept. 2021, when my son Forrest visited. He pointed out the parallel curves in my recent paintings. That gave me the handle to write the grant narrative. The steel framework was left over from a first go that Gregg had at Amaranth. I spied it in the welding yard, and we worked together to add a steel base. Now she sits on a rolling dolly in my studio, calling to me as a siren.
