Rocking Chair Sessions

I grew up on a small blueberry farm in the middle of nowhere Georgia. I got immense satisfaction roaming the woods, gathering materials for little sculptures, and creating stories for myself, but the desire to connect with people, to explore, to learn was pervasive. After graduating at the top of my class, I caught the first ride to Athens, Georgia where I fought doubt and questions relentlessly to get my BFA at the University of Georgia. Clay became my conduit for processing my experience in this world, as a woman, in the South, and it gave me a way to speak, and often, to scream. http://alex-hodge.com
