What I am trying to get across is that material is a means of communication.
That listening to it, not dominating it makes us truly active, that is: to be active, be passive.
The finer tuned we are to it, the closer we come to art.
--Anni Albers
Fast away the old year passes. I've spent the end of the year surrendering to the colorful, nonrepresentational, unpredictable world of tie dye. And making rainbow connections. The other side of fluid and unprecedented. Here are some of the things that emerged from this time of experimentation in the Color Lab.
