> Artist and Curator Jon Bock states: "Tales from Ovid is my second
> collaboration with Ruth Griffin and the Portable Dance Troup.  My 
> work is
> derived from photos taken during rehearsals leading up to the 
> performance.Because of the demanding timeline between rehearsal and 
> the opening of the
> performance, the work was particularly challenging. With only a few 
> weeks to
> photograph, analyze, synthesize, and print, the deadlines were 
> intense.  I
> found myself drawn to the emotive aspects of the subject, the power 
> of the
> gods, sex, passion, fear, love, anger, revenge. all exquisitely 
> expressed by
> the performances of the cast.  The intensity of emotion inspired by 
> thestories became the heart of the resulting artworks. "
> 
> Jonathan Bock works in a wide range of media.  Photography has been a
> persuasive influence on his work, resulting in a synthesis of 
> photographicprocesses, computer imaging, and traditional 
> printmaking techniques.

> Mary Jane Brewster paints almost exclusively portraits.  Her images 
> arecreated from live models, from photographs, and completely from  
> herimagination.

> 
> Judy DeRosa, an Echota Cherokee, is a versatile artist who works in 
> manymedia including painting, collage, monoprint, and jewelry. As a 
> visionaryartist, DeRosa's work beautifully expresses the spiritual 
> yearnings of this
> age.  She is a joyful messenger for this new millennium.

> Toby Raetze "plays with light" by making what he calls light-
> cymbals and
> other colorful and colorless sculptural creations.   Some of Raetze
