A group show of installations using recycled and salvaged materials. Each of the ten artists in the show  have their own solutions to the common problem of retreived, used, broken and /or discarded  things.

What each found object meant to each artist 
and how they created a relationship to the history or quality of this material is what the exhibiton offered the viewer -- multiple viewpoints, and a new way of seeing  forgotten objects.

An article on my ephemeral work
will be in the next issue of
ChildArt Magazine, published by the
International Child Art Foundation.

Currently I am working on a commission,
continuing with "Drinking Blue-greens"
and am putting together new work for
an exhibition at the Point Gallery in August 2008.
