Re-emerging from MFA Program

Just a quick post, to anyone who might be still checking this blog.

It's odd to have not made any posts for the last six months while I worked on my thesis and finished up my MFA degree at AIB. What an experience it was, and well worth all the hard work, and sometimes pain in the process.

The title of this blog has been "Where the process creates its own answers" and the AIB MFA program was indeed a process. An experience that I allowed to be wide open for anything to happen, and a lot did. It created some answers and spawned many new questions. The process provided me with a solid studio practice that will easily continue moving forward. The challenge I find is in motivating myself to continue the academic practices. The process of reading and writing critically informed my work and therefore is a process that I'd somehow like to continue without the inherent deadline pressures of an MFA program.

So it is through the continuation of this blog that I intend to have this dialogue with myself. I don't know yet what parameters I will set in the frequency or content of my posts (I do want it to be interesting after all), but whatever I choose (both success and failures) will become visible and is perhaps one way I can be accountable to myself.

So, more to come...
