Pulse
We live in a vibrating pulsing universe, one vast dance of resonating frequencies, from cells to stars.

This show is a mini universe of rhythms  the creations here are inspired and built on this most basic of ideas rhythm, harmony, beat or pulse.

There is work here inspired by the music of Enya and John Lennon, by the rhythms of Italian culture, and by the patterns in nature plants, flowers, rain.  There are images of snakes administering prozac on a patterned Celtic background, a rhythmically produced figure under a palm tree, a vibrant voodoo priest, and a piece that evokes the beating human heart. There is work created from the visual patterns of written language.

Among the sculptural pieces are a 3 lobed mobius strip done in wood, a seemingly academic portrait of a woman with spiraling hair, and raw, tribal folk-like carvings created by a rhythmic process.

Opening night will feature a healing chair, an experimental performance in movement, and drumming by a guest musician.

Opening Night, Drumming Performance

Guest musician Bruce Henczel will play compositions inspired by visual works in the show as well as compositions from his own diverse repertoire.
