This year I’ve been doing a lot of chatting with other polymer artists, collaborating–or hoping to–on a variety of projects primarily related to promoting polymer and the image of polymer art. What I would really like to do is artistic collaborations. It is amazing what the creativity and input from another artist can do to push your work and get you think in different directions. You often end up with something that you would have never imagined. That synergistic effect of two or more minds trying to resolve individual visions into one can be so exciting and energizing.<\/p>\n

You may have seen the beautiful work of\u00a0 J.M. Syron and Bonnie Bischoff<\/a> combining woodworking and polymer. Their large piece of furniture are well-known but I adore their lamps.<\/p>\n

Cynithia Toops regularly collaborates with jewelry smith Chuck Domitrovich. Chuck set\u00a0 up a wonderful Flickr page with their in-progress and finished work<\/a>.<\/p>\n

One of favorite collaborations is this very interesting wood and polymer piece by Porro Sahlberg\u00a0 and Peter Sahlberg Leppikallio.\u00a0 The “Trilobite Cabin” was included in “500 Cabinets” by Lark Books. Click on the photo to go to the page with the detail of the side which is just wonderful.<\/p>\n

So … have you considered collaborating?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
