I am currently participating in the “6 Sides 2 Every Story” art collaboration organized by Candace Nicol. This project is funded by grants from the Nevada Arts Council, and Sierra Arts Foundation.
Candace introduces the project by saying, "As humans, we have the incredible ability to perceive the same events as completely different happenings. This collaboration project will give consideration to these individual points of view."
"Participants are asked to illustrate their own individual perspectives by carving one side of a wooden cube. Each cube will represent one current issue found in a national/international article, internet posting, or magazine. This project will expand across the United States, starting with 100 (2"x2"x2") cubes, 600 participants."
I began Cube 16 based on the second oil pipeline proposed to be build through Alaska, "Alaska Now Has 2 Gas Pipeline Proposals" http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1998861/posts
The participants of this cube are as follows:
Rossitza Todorova - Nevada — theme originator
Melanie Yazzie - Colorado
Leslie Benson - Colorado
Todd Christensen - New Mexico
Helen Baribeau - Colorado
Susie Mitchell - Colorado
The sides of each cube will be printed and framed for exhibition. A book of the prints is slated for later this year.
