                            A study for part of the body of work shown at the Aspen (Co) Art Museum September 30 - November 20, 2008, "Is It Not High Time For Change" features a white canvas "frame" sewn around the piece (not shown) which finishes this wall hanging.  The installation addressed the language associated with American presidential campaigns.  Employing numerous historical examples of slogans, songs, and speech, the project was intended to encourage people to actively participate in their political process.  More information about this past exhibition may be found HERE.  Information about her past exhibitions may be found HERE.

                            Based on the William Lindsay Gresham novel of the same name
                            Directed by Gilbert Cates

                            April 13 – May 23, 2010

                            Step into Nightmare Alley and enter the titillating world of carnies, cons and clairvoyants. With a score as wild as a funhouse and as evocative as a beautiful tightrope walker, this world premiere musical tells the tale of a young carnie couple who tempt the fickle hand of fate. Based on the darkly evocative 1946 novel of the same name, Nightmare Alley is a night at the theater full of special effects, wondrous feats and enough spirit to make believers of us all. But remember, here, things are never as they seem.
