Creative impulses

This is from the Costa Rica series, mostly using travel magazines and in-flight magazines I'd left in winters past. Getting ready for the Chittagong show, thanks to the fabulous Alam inviting me to have an exhibition on my return to Chittagong in December. you can see the torn magazine pages, folded strips, rubber bands to maintain tension on the coils and a final bowl. often people comment that it takes a lot of patience, but mostly I go into a rather meditative state. Having a few different parts to the process means I can switch from one to the other. When I'm not enjoying it I stop. Such luxury.
