Email matchgirlartshow@gmail.com for more information!no COOKING tonight

I have been without power several times lately.  Between wildfires & 50-80mph winds, I have had to rethink a lot of meals.   While it is an occasional inconvenience for me, it is the reality of dinner for a lot of people every day of the year.  So this year, enjoy your holiday meal with gratitude & remember to find a way to help where you can, when you can, EVERY day of the year, not just on holidays.  This Call is inspired by the David Lang’s Pultizer Prize winning “The Little Match Girl Passion”, based on the Hans Christen Anderson story.  Be inspired…

Check out this Call for Entries from Lycoming College (Williamsport, PA) together with Fiona & Christopher Jackson for The Match Girl Art Show.  There is no link to this show online.  You can find the email address is at the end of the post.

ARTIST of the DAY: Carrie Mae Smith

"DuPont Circle Quilt" by Carrie Mae Smith
“DuPont Circle Quilt” by Carrie Mae Smith

“I am interested in re-materializing the sort of objects that history leaves out, utilitarian objects
too common to be recorded or preserved. Historic objects and structures that signify or embody
the evidence of marginalized people who once occupied them.  In this way I engage with concerns
of class, gender and domesticity, through analyzing both forms and their position in society.”
—Carrie Mae Smith

___

So, I opted out of holiday celebrations this year.  I am not feeling particularly Grinch-y; however, it has been a sobering year, and I didn’t feel compelled to fake it.  As a result, I am wading through the unnecessary “cheer ups” & the non-stop recipes for snowflake-shaped confections. I think that it is that very sense of introspection about domesticity and gender that drew me to Carrie Mae Smith, today’s AAAD Artist of the Day.

"American Darts" by Cyrus Kabiru
“American Darts” by Cyrus Kabiru

“My work has everything to do with my dad. First the glasses. Now the bicycle. He raised me well and showed me the future. He wasn’t the kind of parent to give you things. Beyond food, clothes and shelter, the next step was you.” — Cyrus Kabiru

___

As the new year creeps closer, I find myself searching for a new frame of mind, a new perspective, a new framework, a new set of eyes, if you will, with which to navigate the world.  Today’s AAAD Artist of the Day, Cyrus Kabiru, offers us a reminder that we choose how we frame our future –crafting something new from pieces of our past, new, used or discarded.

I believe in food as medicine.  Like a lot of you, I have a couple of chronic health conditions that require medication, including cough-variant asthma. I have chosen to take the least amount of medication possible to suppress side effects –specifically to my voice.  Green tea with honey, cayenne & turmeric is loaded with anti-inflammatories that really help prepare my voice for the level of use I have to sustain.  The positive? I take fewer prescription drugs.  The negative? My tongue is always orange, ha. This next Call wants your positive and/or negative take for the 32nd year in a row.  Take a look…

There IS scientific data to back up the validity of some effects of so-called aphrodisiacs, but some are a real stretch.  We all know about the standards, oysters & coffee & chili peppers, but my favorites remain figs & honey.  Both preserve well in various forms so that I can buy them in peak season, and they just invite Greek dessert recipes which are winners in my house every time.  This next Call is also for Valentine’s Day.  Take a look…

Raw fish and seaweed tend to be very polarizing ingredients.  Rarely do I meet someone who has a take-it-or-leave-it attitude about sushi.  It tends to be love or hate every time.  I understand why raw fish lacks appeal for so many.  But, I find converting friends into sushi-lovers is often as simple as the surprise lunch.  Sushi kitchens are usually spotless; the food is usually delicious & flavorful.  Finding lovers of public art is far easier, and this next Call proves it every year.  Take a look…
