Bonfire Virtual Residency, 2021
2021
In 2021, I participated in a Bonfire Residency with the theme of The Loop. This was a remote/virtual residency with participants from all over the world. Pat and Lukas guided us through virtual meet-ups, studio visits and coordinated guest speakers. It was a really incredible opportunity to connect with folks from different areas and with different practices. I spent a lot of time thinking about my own practice, the loop that exists within it and experimented with different approaches. I hope that I get the chance to participate in another virtual residency and highly recommend if you have the chance to!
More of my thoughts from the Bonfire website:
«I started BONFIRE thinking that I would have a final «piece» to share, but through conversations and through exploration of my own artistic practice, realized that my process in itself is quite a loop that I find myself in. Documenting the process that I repeat for each leaf, petal, flower, piece of honeycomb or stone that then gets used (potentially) in many different pieces in the future. This is a loop I’m sharing with you.»
