Peter Deckers floor talk

I went to Masterworks Gallery on Ponsonby rd last week to listen to Peter Deckers, a NZ contemporary jeweller - or 'maker' as he described himself. He spoke about his current show in the Thinkspace section of the gallery and also a bit about his next show which will be happening in a few weeks (i think) in the same space. He spoke a little bit about his making process and how he generates the ideas behind his pieces, which is always something that i am interested to learn about other artists -  probably because this is something that i am still trying to find out about myself. He said that once he's got his idea, he will make without thinking. That sounds to me like a very exciting way of creating object art, because there are so many possibilities available before the mind adds its two cents and logic comes into the picture and starts to narrow things down. I don't work in this way... finding an idea which i am so passionate about that i want to make it the subject of my art seems like a very big hurdle to get over.
