What Is Art? The definitive answers.
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life, and you will call it fate.”- Carl Jung
I've spent the day with NPR following leads looking for the hideout of the surviving Marathon Bomber. We have no answers, but after almost 24 hours we are easing up on fears for my community and family back in Newton. If we were there this week we would have been on lockdown as we can see Watertown from our bedroom window. Now again they are reporting that he is in a car. If so he will be found, but there will be no good end to this saga. All we are hearing is that this wasn't how any of his family or friends perceived him. Right now he is a cornered animal so nobody could ever predict what he might do. I am going home now, going to take a shower and go out to a fancy dinner so I need to put this all on the shelf and think about it when I get back. But I will be looking around and wondering who at the table has this sort of murderous rage building up inside...

In my most recent work, I have studied the life and lifespan of certain specific objects-—tea sets, silverware, tools and utensils—that seem to have a kind of eternal shelf life. Some are old gifts that become new gifts, others polish nicely for use or decoration, and still others find new life at a yard sale or pawn shop. In this way, they form a lineage that continues to connect us to each other, through generations and geographies.
