Emotions.  We can’t live with them, but we can’t live without them.  Am I right?  Each day, every moment brings a roller coaster ride of thrilling ascents and sharp curves.  My goal with this exhibit was to create a living experience for the viewer—one in which art and music combine to create an immersive emotional journey.  Emotions, fluid and usually temporary, are part of the human experience, meant to be felt, but not always acted upon.  Each painting evolved while listening to a specific heartfelt song.  Can you see the passion in each stroke? Does an image created in delight communicate that sentiment through texture, color, and composition?  Can you feel what I feel?  Are we connected through sensation?  Life is a rollercoaster ride of feelings, from happy to sad, melancholy to hopeful, and anger to reverence.  When you leave this exhibit, notice how your feelings transform with each step forward.  Remember, you are not your emotions.  You’re the quiet, still space watching yourself experience those sensations.
