Full of Ideas
handpainted silk, raw edge applique, embroidery, quilting and looping
by Donna Kallner

About Full of Ideas
For an exhibition in 2010, I wanted to incorporate looping in paired pieces that would address a common theme in two different ways -- one two-dimensional, the other three-dimensional. The companion to this piece was the vessel Catch. In that vessel, I wanted to address the slippery nature of ideas, and my desire for an efficient tool (like a net) for capturing them. That piece led to this one. I do feel, much of the time, that my mind is a big open vessel swirling with ideas that could jump out at any moment. I used to want to capture them all, lest I never have another. Now, I'm more inclined to think of some ideas as "catch and release." There are always more spawning.
