Yesterday Eva, who is in the studio adjacent to mine, comes in carrying her Apple notebook computer. She is asking about English phasing in an artist statement she is composing in an email. We talk a bit. I read the first sentence – with the concepts of foundation and communication joined in the first sentence. I recognize she and I share a similar affinity to clay. Her forms are sensuous beyond mine – yet she describes tension and strain as the foundation.

{She is from Sweden, the mother of three children and is here for the second time. Must have an incredibly supportive husband. Four weeks away to work on her art.}

Good participant to share the small moments of conversation and exchanges of working habits. Follow one’s own path. So many others around on another journey
