walking the sticks

‘There were projects which were not possible because of economic, time, space and technical problems. Some forgotten project will come back to mind when it is needed. I contain my projects in my body, which I find as my studio, and I don’t try to remember or describe them all.

My working process is intuitive and I believe its own logic. Being nothing/nothingness and making nothing/nothingness is my goal. It is a long process.’

Needless to say, Studiononstop has stopped. In 2010 my studio building in Surry Hills was renovated and the rent tripled. I could no longer afford a studio in Sydney. That year I took a year off art anyway, and these days I do other things.

I post occasionally at In the life world and currently on Cutting Edge Permaculture.
