Slender Intuition began when, after relocating in 2020 to Indiana, changing jobs and locations, I found myself completely blocked in my studio. My initial frustrations gave way to curiosity, and I began reaching out to other artists in my new home to ask them about their experiences with artist block, and the ways it impacted their practice.  In 2022, I received a grant to investigate the subject more formally in the form of an essay, which soon became essays.  Along the way, I interviewed Eli Craven, Rowland Ricketts, Jacinda Russell, Rachel Leah Cohn, Toby Kaufmann-Buhler, Caleb Weintraub, and Marianne Boruch about the moments when block impeded their work, or caused projects to shift in unpexpected directions. As it turns out, in the middle of a collective lockdown, there was much to be said about artist block.
