Profiles for November, 2016

Recently Amada Simon was here visiting from England. Coming to the Mothership was a focal point as she planned a yearlong retreat to focus on sculpture, drawing and writing. Her stops in the US included a trip to New York, time here in New Mexico, and then on to Texas, South America and many other parts of the world. Amanda is a student of Joanie Solaini and she has completed Acutonics Level I & II.

If it hadn’t been for the burning rice fields in Chico, California, Judy Bernard might never have gotten into Acutonics. Mm, probably an over exaggeration. But when your eventual profession isn’t even a profession, when it’s not a major and it’s still in its infancy, when it doesn’t yet have a name, chances are you’re gonna find your way to it in a rather circuitous-fortuitous manner. The way Judy Bernard did.
