Day 21 : Work 21. Hopeful babbling

Day 21 : Work 21. Hopeful babbling

For almost a month and through over 20 pieces of wearable object making What Have I got? What kind of insight to my practice have I built up?

  • It was not unfamiliar thing at all for me to make one piece per working day at the studio. But I have tried to stretch myself into making something more interesting. something more focused. something talking about me more.

  • People say that when you travel you try to see something interesting, different, exciting etc around you but the only thing you could really see better and more is indeed yourself. I have been thinking about it and I couldn’t agree more. Through one month of journey of diligence I could see what kind of person I am a little better. It is not just about what I like or don’t like but about how I would like to think, respond and try to improve myself. I love hard working, being aware, and the most importantly with all this task I am so happy at the studio everyday.

  • However, only by making these production work (not all of theml) which I have been making for over decade to fill up the task will not be enough as it will only lead me where I am.. I would like to get somewhere deeper, bluer so that hopeful.
