Elissa and I recently attended the opening of an art exhibit in Provincetown. The exhibit was the creation of Susan Lyman, who spent years making it happen. Elissa has taken classes from one of the artists, Vico Fabbris. We have also bought some of Vico's drawings. Vico reverses extinction. He creates his own plants, and gives them a detailed story. Vico was one of four artists that each took a different look at nature. Nathalie Miebach takes careful measurements of nature and uses it to create new forms. In this exhibit, we see 3D art that is in fact a depiction of the weather over some period of time. Also, she used the weather to create a music score. The piano music during her segment is from that score. And Susan Lyman takes driftwood and carves it into life-like wooden forms.
I hadn't planned on making a video, but this event featured three artists discussing their works, and I decided to take a series of stills with the iPhone, and then edit them together. I wanted to capture the energy and excitement of these artiists. The fourth artist, Michael Mazur, died recently, and the show is dedicated to his memory.
