Threshold Big Sur, CA 2022
An intimate installation exploring the concepts of thresholds and portals using materials sourced from the natural environment. A threshold can be a point at which one starts to experience something, the moment when something shifts, something is felt. The first step of transformation is the severance of what was before. By entering through a threshold is to move through a portal into the Otherworld. The space of intuition, spirit, mystery, and change exists there. "Threshold" invited participants to enter through a large piece made up of basket shapes (what are you gathering?) hung between redwood trees into a small forest. It was composed of repurposed materials, plant material, locally harvested clay, and gourds-turned-musical instruments.
