There is nothing new under the sun. Artists draw upon what is already out there. The challenge is to own the image. The twelve panels composing Flight draw on bird-like associations. More abstracted forms suggestive of flight could have negated these avian characteristics, but even such forms would need to be owned, stripped of familiarity and mediocrity. The attempt has been to retain associations suggestive of feathered creatures and their escape from the bonds of the earth while simultaneously owning the images. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dust to dust. Psalm 10 speaks of people of the earth. Bound to the ways of the earth. we long to be untethered. The Holy Spirit, who dwells within believers, offers continual opportunities to choose flight away from the claims of the earth. This is not a flight of fantasy, but the reality of a relationship imbued with the living God.

United States
Since retiring as a professor of art education from The Ohio State University in 2016, Sydney has returned to full-time artmaking. During her tenure as a professor, she researched and wrote extensively about the artmaking process, authoring the widely-read text, Teaching Meaning in Artmaking (2000), and, most recently, a work in process, Naming Play for Artmaking. These writings entertain strategies that inform her own artmaking practice, most particularly that of play as it involves chance, nonsense, and experimentation. Through this process, she draws together the disparate to bring forth new ways of thinking such as intertwining a playful aesthetic of oppositions with spiritual seriousness in her most recent work.
