First Post/Current Head Space

After graduation I should have taken a break, but silly me kept on pushing through. Making work I didn't feel strongly about, poor work made in haste to find something exciting. This was beginning to weigh on me, feeling like my practice was getting stagnant. I ended up taking the opportunity to do some traveling and take a break from the studio, and now I am back.


Returning to my practice after a few months, I am feeling ready to sink my teeth in. However, the problem I left is still here, what do I actually want to make? I still don't know after a week settling back into studio practice. The issue isn't that I don't want to make anything, but rather too much. I want to start 100 different ideas and try 100 different practices. This is leading me to a state of decision paralysis. So, to combat this I am beginning a new mode of practice. I now spend my morings doing research and admin (and intermittently going to the gym), then heading to the studio for the rest of the day. So far I am really enjoying this way of working, I am reading a lot more, figuring out and expanding interests, preparing them to be brought into my practice. Hopefully, by continuing this way of working something interesting will emerge. I can see the brow of the hill.
