This is one of my favorite projects for AEDM2012 yet.
Parts of this have been sitting, loose and floppy, and now
she is all…. Done! The frame was a completely boring, faded brown – which I
painted and then textured. The image
is of Adelaide Crapsey, who invented the
cinquain form of poetry atop an image of a Thesaurus page which is atop some
dictionary pages. Alongside Adelaide are one inch circle cut outs from an essay
by Eleanor Roosevelt.
The page with Eleanor’s speech was used in a writing camp
session – you can tell by the
circled words. One of the women at a past writing
camp used those words to prompt her writing, so the energy from women across
the generations just leaps from this simple piece of art.
Tell me about the energy in your current creative projects, please!
