Seven years of patience
\nwhile the persimmon tree
\nincubates her fruit. Also
\n“deep… dark… tomb”<\/p>\n

In his poem “The Persimmons,” Gary Snyder goes “deep in the dark of a tomb” and emerges with a persimmon ripe to the bottom… one of a group… that might have been drawn by Mu Ch’i.” Here the poem rises beyond space-time to the realm of the spirit. (source<\/a>)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

My work is a form of psychoanalysis. It is a way of coming to grips with my anxiety and fears. It is an attempt to be a better person.<\/p>\n

My work deals with problems that are pre-gender. For example, jealousy is not male or female. I do not believe that there is a feminist aesthetic.<\/p>\n

I am glad when people respond to the work. But this has nothing to do with my motivation and need to work. The only thing that interests me is the piece I am working on now.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
