Sometimes projects take on their own momentum .... this was one of them. When the idea was conceived I think I had quite different ideas in mind for what each envelope could/would contain. I wrote none of this down which was remiss and I could recall none of those ideas when I tried. As the time came close for completion, I decided I just had to start the work and let come what may. As I began gathering bits and pieces around the studio, papers, small copper etching plates, embossings and so forth a storyline began to emerge and once I was into the first few envelopes, the creative energy just seemed to take over. In the end the thoughts all came rather quickly and spontaneously. I think I will title my project 'Searching' - a very loose title which I think encapsulates the random thoughts I had along the way, mapping part of that search knowing inside that in fact I need no longer look. That I belong just where I am. the thirteen envelopes first - etching seen in last post second - etchings, writing drawings second - envelope and internal details third envelope - etching, embossing and markmaking fourth envelope - etching, embossing and marks fifth envelope - etching, embossing and marks details of envelope six - embossings on leather, stained and marked papers luminous graphite markings seventh - etching on rusted paper, scratchings on envelope envelope eight - leather embossing and rusted detail with marks envelope nine - sewn together, suggestions of something inbetween layers detail of envelope nine envelope ten - sewn envelope, embossing and etching, markmaking detail of envelope ten envelope eleven is a bound folio - thread supplied by generous Jennifer envelope eleven - embossings on sublime fine paper, and etchings, marks more details of envelope eleven eleven - details envelope twelve - etching, drawings, marks and scratchings on transparent paper details of envelope twelve details - envelope twelve the twelfth envelope has two etchings on its flap thirteenth envelope - etchings on envelope and one page, staining, marks and writing drawings details of envelope seven - (the search is over) I smile often when I look back over the collaborative work Fiona and I have made in the latter part of this year. I think I like it as much as any of the work I have ever done. I am not sure why that is but I suggest it is something to do with such a lovely energy between us, the encouragement we give each other and the profound respect and liking we have for each other's work. It is more than this I am sure .... Fiona brings out the quieter side of my creativity I think, or at least the timing of this collaboration with the fact that I am in a happy place in my life, seems to make my work my thoughtful and quieter. I count myself fortunate indeed :-)

I forget how I discovered Emily Barletta but I remember falling in love with this: I just discovered her recent works and love them just as much: And those are already morphing into this: Last 5 images: embroidery on paper One of the things I admire the most in artists of all medium is their ability to keep reinventing themselves, and she seems so brilliant at it.. See more of Emily's work here and visit her blog there. The last two photos are details of works that are going to be in Art/Sewn, curated by Ward Mintz, at FiveMyles in Brooklyn in March. Another good reason to get down there... All images (c) Emily Barletta.
