| Introduction | ‘My work evokes experience of boundaries, borders, intersections & connection points, where times change & sections separate. These are vital in order to evaluate beginnings & endings in nature & experience. Seeing the value of the journey tunes us into the vital energy of growth & change. This energy, drawn from our existence in the environment is my strongest influence with personal development & evidence of past human habitation, the resulting work makes the past Present.’ My love for community art projects is seeing lives enriched through 'making' imagination a reality & inspiring creative thought. This makes for interested & happier people & fulfilling, good memories. The arts help inform, refresh & renew our mindset by encouraging us to think about things in different ways than we're used to. Often from seeming non-sense & fun come completely new & even personal original thought. I work with groups & individuals, whatever their ability, encouraging them to make something that comes from themselves. From this kind of giving we always receive. gabriellenaptali.com |
