KING ARTS COMPLEX DR BARBARA NICHOLSON, WHO ARRANGED THIS VISIT, KNOCKS ON THE ANIMATED DOOR OF AMINAH ROBINSON WHILE MY MOUTH WAS HANGING WIDE OPEN.

FIBER ARTIST AMINAH BRENDA LYNN ROBINSONS INSTALLATION FRONT YARN. THIS AMAZING WOMAN PREPARES HER PATH BEFORE HER,

WE WERE GREETED BY AMINAH AND INVITED IN,... HAS WE ENTERED THIS LIVING STUDIO, WE FIRST APROACHED A VANITY TABLE THAT WAS CONVERTED TO A ALTAR OF SORTS, WITH A LARGE BOOK OPENED WITH AN AMAZING DRAWING OF THE HUMAN BODY.... I REALY APRECIATED THAT AMINAH AND DR NICHOLSON LET ME HAVE MY SILENCE, HAS I WALKED AROUND AND DRANK IN THE LIFE IN THE SURROUNDINGS ROOMS.

WITH EVERY STEP, AND EVERY TURN OF THE HEAD THERE IS INSPIRATION FROM DOOR NOBS, TO WALLS, BOOKS, ART, OPEN LETTER, NOTES, YOU NAME IT. WHAT EVER ENTERS THIS CREATIVE CHAMBERS IS ADDED TO THIS ARTIST CREATIVE PALETTE.

WHEN I SAW AMINAHS WORK IN PROGRESS I HEARD MY HEART BEATING IN MY EARS AND I FELT IT IN MY NECK,.... BUT... I WAS COOL!!... I WAS TOTALLY REVERENT IN THE PRESENCE OF THE RESTING NEEDLE & THREAD OF A MASTER.

I FELT LIKE I WAS WALKING BEHIND THE CURTAIN OF THE WIZARD, WHEN I SAW THE CONSTRUCTION OF ONE OF AMINAH'S QUILTS. DR NICHOLSON TOLD ME LATER THAT AMINAH IS TEACHING HERSELF ABOUT 3 OR MORE LANGUAGES.

BOOKS, BOOKS EVERY WHERE, THEN I SAW THE POST CARD ABOUT MY EXHIBIT (RE) POSSESSED AT THE KING ARTS COMPLEX ON HER WALL.

AMINAHS RESEARCH MATERIAL.

AMINAH HAS TURNED HER KITCHEN INTO ANOTHER STUDIO SPACE FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF HER SCULPTURE, I WAS TOLD SHE DOES NOT COOK, SHE TURNED THE STOVE INTO A STAND FOR HER THIMBLE ASSEMBLAGE SCULPTURE.

I AM LOVING THE THIMBLE ASSEMBLAGE.

I WAS TOLD THAT AMINAH ONLY EATS FRUIT.

A ROW OF FRUIT RIPPENING IN THE WINDOW SUNLIGHT.

AMINAH HAS TWO DOGS, THEY ARE REAL CHARACTERS, SO ARE HER DOGGIE CERAMICS.

AND THEN I ENTERED THE MASTERS DRAWING ROOM!!!!!...

I ALWAYS WANTED TO KNOW WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE, TO BE IN A MASTERS STUDIO THAT HAS SUCH HISTORY AND ENERGY.

I LOVE HOW AMINAH HAS GIVEN SUCH SPIRIT TO HER ENVIRONMENT BY ANIMATING THE WALLS WITH HER PAINTINGS.

AS THE SIGN ABOVE SAYS,... THIS IS AMINAH SANCTUARY... I DID NOT ENTER... BUT, I REALLY WANTED TO.


AMINAH HAD THIS OTHER STUDIO BUILT IN HER BACK YARD.


I LOVE THIS ASSEMBLAGE ON THE WOODEN FENCE... YOU CAN'T HELP TO HAVE MEMORIES WHEN YOU SEE THESE MANUAL TOOLS FROM YESTERYEAR.

AMINAH INSIDE HER OUTDOOR STUDIO.... HER SCULPTURE FILLED THE SPACE FROM THE FLOOR TO THE CEILING.

AMINAH WAS "RIGHT ON TIME" WHEN SHE GAVE ME THREE ROCK FROM HER BACK YARD.... I LOVE ROCKS.... AND I LOVE THE ROCKS THAT PEOPLE GIVE ME... A CHOOSEN ROCK SAYS A LOT ABOUT THE GIVEN.


I SAW THIS SIGN AS WE WERE LEAVING. ALL HAND CARVED BY AMINAH.

TWO OF THE MANY MASSIVE QUILTS CREATED BY AMINAH.

THIS WAS THE HIGHPOINT TO THE EXHIBIT (RE) POSSESSED TRAVELING TO COLUMBUS OHIO, WAS MY VISIT TO THE WORK/LIVE/SANCTUARY SPACE OF THE "SUPER BEING OF ANOTHER ORDER" AMINA BRENDA LYNN ROBINSON. I REALLY THANK DR BARBARA NICHOLSON OF THE KING ARTS COMPLEX FOR MAKING THIS HAPPEN.
