The natural world is in constant movement as it balances between order and chaos. A good design is created from the same tension. Its qualities of strength, beauty and dynamism stem from the artist's ability to remain open to these opposites during the act of creation. The finished piece is the sum of countless choices the artist makes. All thought and no feeling will result in work that is stiff and cold, whereas all feeling and no control yields work that fails to express itself. The intertwining of the two will be an expression of the dance of life itself.
