Memory Tables
by Gil McElroy, January 2007
"Two hundred years ago, two European powers intent on colonial expansion and hungry for the resources this continent offered clashed there, and as a consequence it has a history of heartbreak, great tragedy, and violence. In the mid-eighteenth century this place was home to French settlers who set about trying to agriculturally tame the wetlands."

by W. Bradford Paley, January 2007
"The visual/cultural resonances with ancient native American calendars, mandalas, antique engravings of the solar system; the red weekends at the bright center and the wavy outer corona all have been turned to directly support the calendar's use as a tool. It contextualizes every hour, even on a year's time scale: if someone marks the calendar, then looks back in even as little as an hour, they will be able to see time's inexorable march.

Spiel

Callie Hirsch
August 2006
"My concerns as an artist are twofold: the unearthing and piecing together of archetypal forms, and the exploration of the creative process itself. My paintings are stylized pathways, stories told through intricate designs that both intrigue and reveal. Each painting is an attempt to recreate the power of personal identity as a living organism within the larger, evolving body of human history."

DIVE!afrique
text and art by Cecelia Chapman, November 2004
"The sky was shot with brilliance as if the sun would take over the universe. The sea was turquoise blue. That was my first sign. I should have realized, as the waters of San Francisco are jade. The second sign was the warm water. But with the combination of light offshore breezes, the piercing, gold sunlight and glorious water, I thought how lucky I was to be alive in that moment."
