Synergy 2 Exhibit Piece

by Libby on December 22, 2009

Here is my piece for the Synergy 2 Exhibit.  I am calling it “Keeping It Together”.  The name seemed appropriate because  the theme of this second Synergy Conference is Connections, and the necklace uses many forms of connections:  polymer clay to polymer clay, soldered connections, tabs and links.  All these types of connections serve to secure the elements of the necklace and keep it together.

On a deeper level, “Keeping It Together” represents how the creative spark inside me helps me stay sane and grounded even when it’s banked and quiet.  I think of my artistic side as the pilot light of my soul.  Sometimes it is hard to really know it’s there, but even when it’s really only in the back of my mind, it helps hold me together mentally and emotionally.

Beautiful, Libby. And so right on about the artistic spark keeping one grounded, even if it’s not firing something into being at the moment.
