They arrived with very little and now have a visual festival created with works made with various materials such as crushed stone, or mouse traps. This diverse dialogue with the landscape of Newfoundland, the chosen materials of each artist, and the off beat sensibilities each artist makes for a show not to miss. "As with any excursion or pilgrimage there are implicit questions that predate the departure. What to Bring. What one expects to find on arrival. There are imagined images of what the foreign land and light will reveal and musing upon how that will influence the artists work..."Virginia Eichhorn Also see some sight specific works in Pouch Cove OPEN: June 29, 2004 CLOSE: July 26, 2004
