Cool Dot

My world is a dot, a cool blue sphere. Flooded with sunlight, it explodes in green, coruscating life, the stuff of my dreams, my passions, my art. My sculpting medium is grass, the living, seething tangle of blades. It pulsates with life and endless possibilities. It represents the resilience, the tenacity of the natural world that does not give up even when assaulted by concrete, steel, and glass. I tame that grassy wilderness through the intelligence of a dot, a globe, an orb. A dot, from a pixel to a celestial sphere, has become for me an image and a symbol, a prism and a lens through which I see the world around me. It shapes my perception, fires my imagination, throws me into a creative whirlwind. Perfect roundness in cool, bristly shades of green, large grassy pearls sprawled on the colours of the earth, living balls floating in the shimmering air. Green on the cool blue globe. Cool dots. ~Ewa Tarsia, artist~
