Private Story
John Eckberg, Origami Artist, for Bloom Magazine (Feb/Mar 2024)
John was embarrassed that his studio was not perfectly clean, but it looked like a well loved, creatively utilized space. I was so happy he showed it to me. Reminded me of this quote:
"Art studios are often described as the window into the soul of an artist. They are places where the evidence of mistakes is retained upon walls and floors, windows and doors, privately exhibited to inform and teach in a journey of discovery and creation [...] Art studios can tell the stories of the development and the disasters that occur over the many years that it takes to hone a craft or a style." -Samantha Frew
