What are the boundaries that define your work? I often feel that the more we explore, the more we realize what is really essential about ourselves, what really matters. I would say, go! Express new ideas, and you will find that they are not that disconnected from your previous work. You might have to wait a bit for the wind to die out, you might have to squint a bit, but I am sure that you will find this flag, in the immense white nothing, that will bring you home.. I love reading your blog, keep writing to us! Anais Hi Anna,

I am an artist from Houston, Tx, and last December I opened my small freezer as gallery called N. You can check out some information about the shows there, though there is no pictures of the work that was presented. I just wanted to create a connection with you for a potential freezer show. Best, Aisen Hi,

I am re-reading Melville's Moby Dick and going to be writing a paper, possibly, on the symbolism of white - the absence of all color. Since I am in a lit. class with an instructor who loves philosophy, that will be rewritten to the absence of all meaning, not just color. I am going through a similar symbolic smash-up. Thank goodness spring is coming, even though it is 35 tonite. And not that I am an artist, but break the boundaries! I just noticed that Melville has crept into my writing - remember how often he used alliteration?!?! Keep writing Nice to read your conflict/curiosity/conundrum with white.

The white buckets on the head is so funny yet so scary at the sametime. Looking forward to see the art inspired by trip. I really enjoyed reading about your adventures in Antarctica.

Thanks for putting this on your website. I had a lot of fun this year working on the samples and I was so glad you were able to come down and show us all a completely different perspective to the science we all work on. I hope to see you in Seattle sometime soon. -john Hey Anna!
