Spooned

There is a delightful intimacy to spoons.

They conjure up the comfort and calm of

lying with a loved one or the soothing

sensation of eating warm soup on a cold

fall day. We use spoons to lift nourishment

into the mouths of small babes and the sick and the dying. They are a vehicle for the transmission of sustenance and of emotion. Spoons fill the simultaneous role of tools and connector, encapsulating my desire to build connections between one people.
