Metamorphous

Interesting, how my INSPIRATO project goes from emotion to words & back to emotion.  Hadn't fully envisioned that when it first came to me, but it's how I'm processing turning it from concept into reality into (hopefully) an emotion-touching part of our art show.

Words are what we come up with to best describe the feelings, thoughts we experience.  Their ultimate use is to return us to wordless feeling, sensing, awareness.

Not, it's interesting, knowing.  Knowing is limited.  Today's knowledge is outdated by tomorrow's events.  My hope is for the Inspirato chain to transcend knowing & knowledge, evoking & touching something closer to intuitive energies.

Opted OUT of making the chain out of art paper paired with neutral-hued card stock.  Instead, will use all brightly-colored card stock, alternating a link with a name/quality with a blank link, so that none of the pairs are lost to view.  Will get the paper today.

Next question - straight-edged links or fancy cut?
