2009 marks the beginnings of a new collaborative project called: Inner Works, check out our new team blog! This is an altered book project of six fabulous artists coming together to share in a round robin over the coming Winter and Spring months. I can't think of a better way to spend these cold months to go inwards and create a special altered book.
The six artists are: Seth Apter, Veronica Funk, Supria Karmakar, Roxanne Evans Stout, Rita Vindedzis and Jill Zaheer.
Here is a lovely poem I'd like to share for the first day of 2009...to the "amazing you"....
"Only You" - a poem by Dan Coppersmith
No one on Earth exists quite like you
And no on is able
To do what you do
The person you are
The talents you bear
Gifts that only you can share
Only you have learned
From the things you've done
Gaining perspective
From the battles you've won
Times when you've lost
Have been priceless too
The lessons contribute
To what makes you you
The rest of the world
Can't see through your eyes
Which is why your insight
Is such a prize
Because you are you
There are lives you affect
Much more than you
Would ever expect
The things you do
The things you say
Send ripples throughout
The Milky Way
You're unique,
Amazings like no one else
You have the exclusive
On being yourself
