I am drawn to the composition and color in these "sets". Inspired by the work of William Leavitt four artists were invited to create theatrical "sets" to then host other artists work. I like the idea of a "birth place" for other artists to express their work. The lighting in the "set" areas gives a definite movie set atmosphere. I respond to the last photo of what look like circular tambourines suspended from the ceiling. I wonder are they tamborines or just circular vignettes for the designs. The background layers of different color activite the entire "set". I enjoy film and stage shows so this idea of theatrical "set" art appeals to me.
There is a group of clay artists that do a similar event in Austin. Four to six potters/ceramic artists host other artists in their studios. It is a great networking and entrepreneurial step. Cooperative art making and exhibiting is a great community activity.
