I eat popcorn almost everyday.  My most recent obsession is dousing it with loads of chili powder, but for a long time, it was Parmesan cheese.  Popcorn is a memory trigger food for me; my Dad ate it every night with garlic salt with a side of Coke with peanuts (or Tab).  It’s a Southern thing.  What are your memory triggers?  This next Call wants to know…

I really have to start putting tags on my frozen food.  I spent a couple of hours waiting for chipotle peppers in adobe sauce to thaw for my black been burgers only to find out that it was left over sloppy joe sauce–NOT an acceptable substitute. I even keep a Sharpie® in my kitchen drawer to put labels on Ziploc® bags, but what do I do about all the glass freezer containers?  It’s like leftover roulette in my kitchen.  This next show is sponsored by the TAG…

We don’t have leftovers at our house.  Any additional food that isn’t scarfed up by my ravenous 13-year-old or my string-bean skinny husband ends up being eaten as a lunch within a couple of days or as an additional ingredient in dinner that week.  I’m not sure why people object to leftovers so much.  Maybe it is a marketing problem.  We should take a nod from the British and start giving dishes made from leftovers great names like Bubble and Squeak.  This next Call is your chance to have a showing in London.  Take a look…

Louis Singh says, “St Ives in the 1970s was a somewhat lazier place than today. Late morning deals were customarily made with cigarette in one hand and glass of sherry in the other. Back then my father had the Wills Lane gallery which ensured my mind was constantly flooded with images of the St Ives School as soon as my eyes had opened.

“When I was ten my parents opened the Beaux Arts gallery in Bath which continued to nurture these Cornish roots. These days with a sister gallery in London, minus the sherry, not much has changed. I busy myself by keeping the gallery from growing old by steering some youth and raw contemporary talent, towards its doors.”

Apparently I speak food-ese.  In the South, we speak in metaphors and euphemisms so often that I forget that not everyone gets it.  While working on a real estate deal recently, my agent said, “Do you need to consult someone before we sign the contract?”  My response was, “Nope, I’m the top banana.  It’s a peach of a house, and if some prune doesn’t like it…Well, that’s just how the cookie crumbles.”  She replied, “Did you miss lunch?”  Hehehe.  True story, I promise.  This next Call is all about the Reality & Metaphor of it all.  Take a look…

I am addicted to No Pudge Fudge brownie mix.  I’ve mentioned it before, I know.  They are the best brownies I’ve ever eaten (from a mix), and they are all natural.  It is the shortest ingredient list ever.  I’ve tried the original, raspberry and cappuccino, but I still haven’t tried the mint because I have to order them and have them shipped to me.  Food by mail isn’t usually my thing, but I may give in eventually.  However, in this next Call, no shipping is a HUGE advantage in my book.  Check it out…

dreaming?

I was out of town this week, and traveling makes eating out necessary.  But, I was trying to behave so I’ll fit back into my Spring clothes again soon.  At one restaurant, I ordered a California Chicken Salad which included mixed greens, mandarin oranges, dried cranberries, blue cheese, candied pecans, croutons, grilled chicken and balsamic vinaigrette.  Mine was sans the blue cheese & pecans, but I am still wondering what made it Californian.  The oranges?  I still don’t know.  Check out this next Call with a name that references place, but it isn’t really the theme.  Interesting…

So, I’ve been out of town without my husband.  That’s mean’s I have consumed huge amounts of shellfish.  He’s allergic, and when he’s not around, I tend to over indulge.  I don’t know how anyone lives with wine-steamed mussels with garlic butter.  How does so much flavor exist in such a tiny package?  Is it wrong that I hope to travel again soon just to have mussels?  Maybe so.  This next Call is all about packing a  big wallop in a small package.  Take a look…

Food has interrelation–be it natural or forced.  In the US, peanut butter is only naturally related to grape jelly, but it is fantastic with raspberry jam.  PB&J has a distinct meaning apart from its separate components.  My immediate connection with peanut butter is peanut sauce, but my connection to PB&J is childhood comfort.  Odd, eh?  This next show is about the interrelation of work, one deriving meaning from the other.  I like this theme…

Art is the original social media: it reaches out and draws together, trying to make connections. It incites discussion and draws meaning through relationships. We are looking for works that are either created in a series or multiple elements (like diptychs) that generate meaning through their interrelation, or works that react to existing famous artworks. The mathematics are simple: one is quotidian and two is exponential.

MEDIA: 2 and 3 dimensional art executed within 3 years of entry date and not previously been displayed in the library.
