I have continued to work on my piece, as well as continue setting up the studio, which I now realize is a task with no end. The studio is an installation within itself. A snapshot of the inside of my brain, as if I had my head permanently stuck within a cat scan.
What's great about working on an assemblage is that it nevers goes the way I originally imagined at the get go. One task can lead me on another path completely. On one hand, it could the construction within the piece, but also I find new objects, have new thoughts. When working on the piece, time stands still. There is no past. There is no future.
Because I decided to use the green key, which is from a ring of keys made for a baby to rattle, which has "happiness" imprinted on it, the piece is now a happiness icon, rather than joy.
The process continues...
