The road to creative independence is
paved in blood sweat and many tears - It’s also a road that one will gain almost equal measures of humility and personal strength, if your wise - So it’s great wildetect 1 of 3 wants to now embark on a pathway of creative Self-discovery. Sometimes
the cutting of the symbolic umbilical cord is a necessary process for real
growth to really creatively develop and find oneself.
I for one fully understand and support that - What one lets
go of will all form part of your artistic tapestry at the end of your journey- That is why it is said "the day of your death
is greater than the day of your birth." Ones creative journey must never be encumbered by
others controlling influence or crit. Whilst you discover your artistic purpose for yourself. Follow your gut and strive for creative uniqueness - That’s really the
key - There are so many talented artists but sadly mostly they all work in a similar set mold and their genius is restricted by the
box mindset. Influenced by their lecturer, by there peers, by their employer.
They all want creative parameters to work within because they feel that’s where the x
factor will be found - The brilliance really is whilst you are sitting on top of the box, not when your in it.
The concept of Wildetecture is
a design / creative incubator, an endeavor
that wrapped around many of the art movements of times before. A group of like minded
creatives aligning themselves around a
set of idealistic creative design based thoughts
- To showcase collective and individualistic endeavor, the pupa shell housing for the butterfly to develop itself really - We all have strengths and although I am creative, one of my skills so to speak - is I recognize unique artistic talent in others and i really try make sure it is focused on becoming the best it can be. That’s why im a teacher
- I love the process of watching someone’s confidence and passion grow. In this analogy im not a shade
tree - I believe creative growth happens when one allows others to bask in the full hlare of sunlight - Because as a creative that is the
hardest thing to do - Because creative, artists, poets all harbor delusions of individual
grandeur and sharing limelight does not come standard with the model. - If one doesn’t have these delusions, then ones endeavors would
on the most part be insipid. (Just my opinion not fact)
One can tend to lose ones
individual artistic identity in a collective. So I understand the need for
independence. Artistic talent and
architectural genius is 10 a penny to be honest - To be at the top of that heap
of professionals and talent, all trying to fight for the limelight is a wrangle I want no
part of really.
Hence the concept of Wildetecture was born. Its very
name signifies an artistic creative rebellion of the norm. Its A concept creative incubator definitely to the left of center. Its something that has existed in various forms over time but it needed fleshing out by a new team. That was something I couldn’t do on my own - it
needed dialogue and conversation - it needed spark and design passion.
Artists can lose a certain
individual creative spark by being part of a collective. That is why we need to
get back to our cteative individual purpose as well.
Im going to meet up with a
carpentry team Monday and look at
building up 2 VNLT 1 point 0 tables -
the original table that first sparked the conversation. I have allowed other
models to develop from the original thought and those have been executed very well. I will look at exploring a crowd funding
option and I will model the chairs on those incredible Scandinavian chairs at
the ripple house.
The drama of the
impossible is made manifest in the endeavors to pull creative concepts out the
ether. The VNLT 1.0 is a vehicle I would like to see in the real. To launch it will take considerable effort but
like looking to find oneself in New York or in an architects office - I believe I will
find myself in the outpouring of individualistic creative wildetect work. Not shackled
by a client or anyone else’s mind or office space.
Where no pressures exists other than the need to see an end
product emerge out thoughtx and dust. I will need to use minimal funding from Wildetecture , however I want
to crowd fund as much as possible - I feel its time for me to experiment more
tactfully with a wood working carpentry base. I need to experiment with form
again in the real.
So whilst New York beckons wildetect 1 and 2 greatness across the vast Atlantic - when one hits over 45 yrs as in my case - Its the vast
oceans of one’s mind and individual unique endeavor is where ones compass starts
to point.
Exploring the first threads of what sparked Wildetecture for me is
now a destination that beckons - The initial energy that pushed this wildetect ship
into the ocean. So to set sail for ones planned destination is the exciting part of life. Its always good
to keep the fires burning and remember you will always without fail find yourself just behind your toes. No matter if your at home or
on the very edge of the world. Set sail for new horizons, challenging your creative ability constantly.
