12 - 6, Tue – Sat Richard, why don’t you open
that door? |
As an artist who considers her
work a continuum Nix creates connections that link past, present and
future both in content and in the
application of traditional and new or
experimental media. Traveling the world, she notices the manner in which man
and women add creative details and improvements to their surroundings.
Additions for the better and on occasion for the worst but always, in her eyes,
containing a certain beauty.
In Hotspots and Canaries she
observes what is occurring in our changing world. Offspring is born. Vegetation
sprouts. But as in coalmines where canaries warned for dangerous conditions
there are the signs of negative development. A participatory work, for which a
call to artists went out to candidly voice their positive and negative
observations, is aptly titled Open the
Door Richard
