Art That Speaks To The Ground of My Being

Anna Schuleit  Visual Artist

Anna, youngest Macarthur recipient ever, is as much a healer as an artist.  Drawn to mental instiutions or other closed sites that have held pain and violence, her installations are full of compassion a kind of blessing to re hallow the ground.  She is without ego, vanity or cleverness.   www.anna-schuleit.com

Recently I was introduced to the work of four New England artsists doing work that speaks to me..energizes me..inspires me..

Joan Lederman..The Soft Earth

                      Glazing with ocean sediments

“Sediments tell about time and place, they bring me to a sense of peace with natural laws, in the flow of vast time. Through this work with sediments, I come to feel Gaia – Earth as a living breathing organism, like my self” Joan combines science, intuition, aleatory processes, a potters skill, and a huge spirit to make beautiful pottery that balances control and serendipity in a peaceful, pleasing palette.. http://www.thesoftearth.com/homepage.htm
