My work honors storytelling as a folk art; a heritage of rich personal experience shared one generation to the next.<br/> Tue, 16 Oct 2001 07:52:17 GMT Sonja Kosler http://www.mnartists.org/work.do?rid=4481 <a href="http://www.mnartists.org/work.do?rid=4481"><img src="http://www.mnartists.org/uploads/users/user_892/8779c191fbbb8a65f65f916a64114e22/8779c191fbbb8a65f65f916a64114e22_scale_49_80.jpg" height="80" width="49" border="1" alt="A Story Telling" /></a><br/>When I tell a story, my goal is to construct a bridge connecting me with the listeners and then to carefully bring all of us across the bridge and into the story. At the conclusion of the story, we are standing at the foot of the bridge. In our own time, we each find our individual paths back to the real world.<br/> Tue, 16 Oct 2001 07:42:21 GMT Sonja Kosler
