INplay

Question:

What do I have currently “in play” around me, in my life, in my practice?

​

​

project:

To create a body of work around the theme of play. 
 

Play:
.in action or operation
.an activity for enjoyment
.to engage without proper seriousness or understanding
.to engage in activity for enjoyment and recreation rather than a serious or practical purpose.

INplay…a dance between serious contemplation and abandoned enjoyment. 
 

​

​

about:

What began as an exploration of elements currently in play in my practice (and influential surroundings), became a rediscovery of the activity of play in my process. The importance of play in our learning and practical approach, our process of creation.
