The Pond

The Pond

Susan Solomon
0/5 ( ratings)
The Pond is a mutually long sought collaboration between kindred artists and souls. Susan and Richard were in dialogue with paintings and poems prior to conceiving The Pond and are thrilled to travel the entire poem cycle together. Both artists experience the world as a living entity of indivisible parts that are in constant dialogue with one another including their human nature. They work in the tradition of the Mountain and River Poets of China for whom consciousness and experience flow through cycles of birth and death with all things as one intelligence and thus they wish their artist works to voice their part in the large conversation. The physical pond is a portal to stars, moon, silence, creatures, memory, loss, longing, becoming, dying, rebirth, culture, and praise. The art works follow a complete cycle of the seasons and each is also a reflective portal to the immediate and infinite—bird, frog, evening star, shadows—hand in hand. Susan and Richard have long been alarmed by the loss of a sense of the sacred regarding nature and the coarsening of culture that renders all mere product. These artists take personal responsibility to witness, grieve, praise, and preserve, arm in arm with everyone and all things. There is an inherent religion within their spirituality that is ancient and primal—to value this.
