Easter upon us! We celebrate tomorrow at Easter Sunday Breakfast at Eastminster
with breakfast, song (GREAT songs!), and worship (10:30am). The days in
between Good Friday and Easter, however, is when I roll ideas around in
my head. The first part of my long running Dress Cycle was conceived at
this time, and I did a rewrite and draft of the 2nd part during last
Easter season. I'm thinking about the 3rd part, about whether to
continue the stories, or to change them somehow. Transformation
is one of the major parts of my artistic identity. I want to use my
skills to transform, to illustrate how transformations can happen. The
story of life turning into death, and turning back into life and beyond
is one of the greatest transformations I know. The third story was going
to be about something relating to First Nations, Métis, or Inuit, but
many of those stories are not mine to tell. I wanted to come up with a
way to talk respectfully about people and how they transform, but also
remain true to my artistic goals. That's what I'm thinking about today.
Peace be with you.
