Cosmic Dance for Jaymi Sculpture

In memory of a friend Jaymi Hill. A talented creative musician and dancer. We collaborated on dance/ performance art projects in school. Looking back at that work we we're ahead of our time. There are no records of our work as we didn't have video or phones back then. Just a memory. I imagine she is dancing free in the cosmos. Indigo because it colours everything, all emotions, our fragile planet, our universe. I grow, harvest and make my own vats using a centuries old formula. Indigo has been culturally, economically and socially significant for 6000 years and it continues to inspire me. A heavy dark industry contrasts with light and shade in the material. An historic and timeless process produces something transient. The Universal becomes personal. These tensions provoke an powerful response. I work with washi and use 22ct moon gold leaf in the cracks that emerge during the alchemy of shibori - the folding and unfolding and dipping that rip and tear which I find beautiful. Wabisabi - the imperfect is perfect. Thematically my work seeks to connect our fragile blue Earth, our delicate material and ephemeral creations, our sprit our vast sky our water and our hope in which we are all one.
