the sculptor.

do not let people, places and things convince you that you must suddenly become a michelangelo. while it may be true that he simply removed the excess from true form, this is because he recognized that things arrive as what they are. the mistake is to think we must then become the sculptor. the liberator, working her chisel against uncertainty, against the unknown. when the true artist is time. where only time can reveal. this certainty is what allows us to hold the art that emerges and to stop when it’s done.
