Ever since the beginning of memory, I drew, painted, and crafted. As a child, above our family couch was a painting of lush woods and trail leading to a cottage house. I followed the trail with my mind’s eye and invented a family that lived in the cottage. Sometimes I would ”sit“ under a painted tree and imagine the world of the painting. My orientation shifted, I was no longer sitting on the couch, I was under the artfully rendered tree. This was the beginning of a love affair with art.

    In the version of Icarus that I was first intruced too.. there was a description of the complicated contraption that Icarus made .. a kind of flying machine.. which was cumbersome.. and only sort of work.. The strings here .. are very exciting.. representing the precariousness of Icarus’s flight.
