ARTIST STATEMENT










             Ingrid Tegnér










             For as long as I can remember, I have
             let the thoughts of others undermine my

             faith in my own work resulting in a
             sense of insignificance. It is time to let

             even that thought go now. During this
             residency, a sense of inadequacy led to

             the indulgence in distraction. Looking
             closer at this failure to produce, I

             realized that I have been gathering ideas
             all along. Many seeds of ideas are being
             nourished underground, unseen. A new

             direction may be germinating.
