“What attracts me … is that it’s not ‘about’ something …- it just IS something.” (Laura Hoptman, Art in America, 1/2019).

I’m walking back from the dog park. Only a salt marsh sits between me and this massive object that reverberates with the clang-clang of iron moved from place to place. Bath Iron Works. Huge. Blue. Metal.

Yeah. I love this town right away. And I love this object. Not what it is, but just it’s “is-ness”.
