NYC loft studio 1962-66
There is energy in all things.
We feel it.
We see it.
It exudes from us.
It helps define us.
A universal truth exists here.
We find it in all matter,
in the earth,
the atmosphere,
the cosmos.
It is a force of life,
of death.
The seed to be planted in the earth
has always intrigued me;
the stem, the roots, the leaves,
the flower, the fruit
are already present there,
but not to our sight.
A mysterious life-force activates it,
An explosion of a living-forming body.
I feel its energy
and try to become a means
to re-forming it
through my intuition
into a new conscious expression
of its being.
