You don't have to look very far back in history to find cultures that celebrated and walked eagerly towards death. Mostly due to a full bodied belief in an afterlife and continued evolution after death which is also a birth. And if they weren't walking eagerly towards it, they at least were at peace with it, many cultures around the world practicing a laying out period after death so community and family members could say goodbye, with death being a lot more present and visible in every day life.
2016 was a huge year for the Little Big Mob. After finally getting away from either being pregnant or breastfeeding for the first time in over a decade, I was going nuts with my creativity especially in its aspect of meditation and therapy, and making wood, wire, raw fleece and spun yarn sculptures of trees and snails and horses and puppy dogs, getting heavily involved in the Weave And Mend Festival out at Djanbung Gardens, and starting up a Stitch And Enrich every Saturday morning at Blue Knob Farmers market.
There are so many ways of learning at home. So many people willing to tell you the rules and the do's and the don'ts. I came across this beautiful photo blog post the other day, and it inspired me.....
My creativity at the moment is totally off the wall. Out of this world. Enthralling. Prolific. Fertile and abundant. Unbelievably so. I'm tripping MYSELF out in fact.
I've had a really bittersweet journey with Art Galleries and Exhibitions.
