I like this metaphor you wrote of. I think of the pace I work at with my art......timing, waiting for paint and glues to dry yet I'm not exactly measuring the time from beginning to end of a piece and if it all feels slow sometimes, I'll walk into the gallery (2nd bedroom) and the dining room where all the pieces are placed once finished and see "acres" of my work......the many pieces I've done and even some I've forgotten about until I meet them again. Time....as linear as it is, is also so abstract a concept to me when I'm creating the work and since. I like and respect the freedom of how it's going.
Not sure I can equate the pursuit of art with the human tragedy of slavery.
We all make choices. If you’re fortunate enough to make art or be in the art making process, it’s a gift.
Mostly to yourself but the world at large. Geographically much more significant than 40 acres.
I do have “mule-like” moments in the studio, but that’s on me.
