nothing which we are to perceive in this world equals
the power of your intense fragility: whose texture
compels me with the color of its countries,
rendering death and forever with each breathing- e.e. cummings, somewhere i have never travelled, gladly beyond
By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and Third by experience, which is the bitterest.

Sculptor Deborah Baldizar
“I liken my sculptures to maps. Each one is a physical description of an emotional place.
Through my work I seek to identify discreet body language that might betray a private thought or reveal a hidden emotion. I am most interested in raw moments of self-reflection, inner thought and questioning.” - Deborah Baldizar
I will.
