We are the ground from which all production springs: without our initiative and unflagging commitment, without our resilience, confidence and willingness to take risks, we would have no work no income, no support...Working artists are giants, creative powers, very wonderful, and very fragile at the same time. So, I hail you for all you have done, and I hail you for knowing when it is time to honor your inner call to return to quiet. Drink it in, take up a mindfullness practice, nurture your happiness and contentment. Fill the well. Enjoy.

It's been a great opportunity! I traveled, did hobbies I never had time for, read lots of books, got into a new romantic relationship, lost weight, just did everything I never had time to do because I was always hard at work in the studio. I wish you the best of luck with your sabbatical! I recently took a year off from art myself. It’s been a great opportunity!

]]> Comment on But is it art? by Sara Robinson http://www.evemosher.com/2009/but-is-it-art/#comment-2271 Sara Robinson Sat, 20 Aug 2011 15:03:53 +0000 http://www.evemosher.com/blog/?p=371#comment-2271 To disguise the bottles (LOVE the recycling, but my inner artist cringes. It does matter a bit...) you could maybe attach some moss to the netting, or even plant some aquatic vines (possibly Elodea or something easy) to overgrow it. I like this a lot, and think kids could get into it, too. Islands are always cool, but floating on recyclables? Great. It I had a body of water in my yard, I'd make one.

I do know Tricia & Amy, I don't know if they have the capacity for something like this. I will check out SPAN and see what they are up to - thanks for the suggestions! Hey Matthew!

You probably do. I think that Tricia and Amy would be game to support this. Do you also know about SPAN? Social practice arts network. Jules Rochelle has that going out of LA. It's not enviro focused but might be a good connection. Matthew Eve – Do you know EcoArtSpace? You probably do. I think that Tricia and Amy would be game to support this. Do you also know about SPAN?

I wonder what the best way to create this community is. And is there any foundation/organization that might be able to support it. Hmmm.... food for thought... I wish I could have gone to the talk - I forgot about artist as citizen (i came across their website i think early in their development). i also just saw the city atlas program (googled it after you mentioned it) and would love to share info with them. do you know if they have been following the http://nyc.changeby.us/#start and ummm the other project that is asking new yorkers what they want and then visualizing change...
