Jo Tour

This month my friend visited – experiences from MoMa to Yale with all the different landscapes in between.

Gathering Perception

We Gathered as if sticks to become- we start- in – ten- tion,
aim no plan, build, construct, erect, – a bon fire – fire to dance in, flames- flames fanned by the breeze, Flames swirling – hot -forging color -reds slip into deep purples, highlighted in white, sometimes striking the ground, other times reaching high in the sky. But always moving, moving fast, to fast to notice change.

The breeze carries, lifts, shifts, the fire to soar places unknown, we slip into and beyond sedation a color so true you relax into the heat, as if the first sun of spring. Raw and Exposed this Sun burns unexpected, propelling unknown out of the shade within the flame. Find- Self, mesmerized and staring – into, the flame as it burns your retinas- taking physical sight so one can only travel by sense. No rest – drive, dance, sing, listen, draw, record.

Delirium sets into space. Space uncontrolled- perfect for testing- expanding – contracting. Groping growth in a new and different form of sight.
A Time, Space Whirlwind, that 2 souls Formed Altered Perception – Reality.

This written piece reflects: how I grew to the point of out of body exhaustion- for two weeks, 7 museums, many friends, food, dances, visits, pools, hikes, photographs, drawing, landmarks of NY, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont, all in the drive of 1980 miles. This was the beginning of many ideas for projects which I consider in retrospect one of my life’s the most connecting important facets holding the diamonds that sparkle with possibilities to come and some already mined. See Sculpture No. 787 and No. 788 SO- THANK YOU Singapore GEORGE!

Kristin Eiriksdottir’s poem, “KOK,” inspires the thematic of opposing forces and tensions of layering and unraveling, concealing and revealing,
containment and openness containment. Both pastel paintings and photography work are relational and dynamic configurations that create movement between these extreme and opposite paths. The work highlights the physical and intuitive labor that goes into the making of an image. The gestures, colors, shapes, and abstract forms that appear bring something to life that spills over and through the frame. What has been generated, animated, and projected, compels us toward these works as they delight in the poetic intention of intuition, in movement and color. (1)
