Dream Weaving

"Dream Weaving"
Sandy Ginsberg

 

"Dream Weaving" was a direct work following a dream of weaving which told me that I had more surgery ahead for cancer.  It shows 2 arm images woven together - both with "danger".  The weaving effort itself was very satisfying and taught me that I had the need for patience ahead.  The day following the dream I was told that I needed additional surgery for "unclear margins" on the melanoma on my upper arm.

 

Now I Can Relax

 

"Now I Can Relax"
Sandy Ginsberg

 

"Now I Can Relax" was am image that came to me in my lack of sleep (twilight imagery) and was ironic in its frenetic repetition and lack of tension in broken rubber bands.

 

Babies in the Big Bed

"Babies in the Big Bed"
Sandy Ginsberg

 

"Babies in the Big Bed" came from following a dream forward which told of how to care for the needs of many rather than the needs of just one.  Share the space.  Care for the children and the ones in need.  The quilt is woven literally with the words of the members of the World Dreams Peace Bridge to me, regarding a particularly difficult dream time.  It encouraged and "comforted" me.


Fish & Hand

"Fish & Hand"
Sandy Ginsberg

 

"Fish & Hand" represents a dream in which I nearly drowned but for a fish who bit down so hard on my hand that I was impaled onto the deck of the boat, and saved.  I needed to see the possibility for transformation rather than just the fear of that horrid mouth so I refocused on the perspective of the fish.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Clay mask with Blood

Old Woman - by Sandy Ginsberg

What We Do for Love

Spiritual Energy Mask

 

Each of the masks is a representation of me.  The Clay and Blood Mask is unfired and has exacto blades for teeth.  The blood was unplanned.  Old Woman, What We Do For Love, and Spiritual Energy Mask... are all cast from my face and were done in various times as self portraits.
