A work of art begins with an encounter between an object or image and the artist. The found form, not necessarily interesting or beautiful to others, is so compelling to the artist that it must be engaged with, seized. Intuitively the artist understands the possibilities this form offers for reinvention. The making of art is a dialogue—grappling, coaxing, and nudging of form until a new light or life emerges.
