Theme: Found Objects
From discarded items to organic materials, this exhibition will feature works emphasizing the transformation of forgotten or overlooked objects into compelling visual art. We encourage participants to interpret this theme broadly and present their unique vision.
Selected work: Danger
Image statement:
Walking along Mississippi River Road in Saint Paul, Minnesota I found this sign warning me of the appending Danger of the cliff’s edge. I first thought this sign needed to heed its warning, but more profound thoughts went to COVID and civil unrest while living in Minnesota; and how we are failing one another as a society. Simple gestures of kindness towards others seemed something of the past being replaced with a “me” civilization with extreme views laced with violence instead of using words and basic respect for one another, knowing that we can agree to disagree and still live in peace. I believe we are all here to help raise each other up when we fall giving each other the support we need while dealing with life circumstances.
