Crucible.........

This word has appeared over and over recently??  .....a vessel for purifying metal......a process of reducing to core elements...?? I took this photograph at Bury Lights Night a few months ago and thought it was like a crucible.  Then  a few weeks ago I bought a print by Loraine Waites, a talented Printer who is also a member of Bury Collective.  It's been a long time since I have bought a piece of art (for financial reasons) but I just had to have it....it was called ....yep .... Crucible.  And then, on the day I was hanging my work for the exhibition, a lady came in and sat having a drink at a table in the middle of us, the book she was reading was The Crucible!!  I am sure more of the meaning of this will be revealed as time passes, but, the day after my exhibition was hung I experienced one of those 'pockets of silence' and a strong sense of belonging........a belonging to myself.  The exhibition and the experience of exposing myself without explanation has been life-changing........and I feel the connection......... x

Your posts are so thought provoking Jules, some would maybe say these serendipitous moments are coincidence but you and I know better.....
