CALL for ENTRIES: 11th National

Posted on by R.L. Gibson

Learn more about the 11th National Juried Exhibition from Knox Arts and Culture Alliance!totally BAKED

I crave comfort food. I have always been an emotional eater, and in my defense, this year HAS sucked. Bizarre business twists, unexpected career delays, personal financial crisis followed by health issues, a relentless year of election propaganda and now a wildfire, a house robbery & now more dreams delayed.  I want baked goods.  Is there a healthier way to tackle trauma?  Of course.  Bite me.  I need the comfort of things familiar like baked goods — and the venue for this next Call.  It is a soft spot for me, and I want it to be for you.  Love…

Learn more about Expo 36 from the b.j. spoke gallery!fast FARE

The freezer saves dinner about two days a week in my house.  We purposefully cook more portions than we can eat and save the leftovers.  It started out as a way to send lunch with my kiddo for school, but it has become a dinner rescue regularly.  When you get busy and have forgotten to plan for dinner and live nearly a half hour from the closest grocery or restaurant, you’re grateful for frozen leftovers.  This next Call is not a leftover or frozen, but I did neglect to plan the publication more than a few days out from the deadline.  Sorry about that…

CALL for ENTRIES: Materialized

Learn more about the Materialized exhibit from The University Gallery at CMU!wedding SWEETS

Practical 3D food printing exists.  years ago I made some clever segue using Star Trek’s food replicator as a the unthinkable –food printing.  And now, there is the Bocusini, which uses all-natural food cartridges to print solid-ingredient food sculpture.  The first use that pops to mind is EDIBLE, miniature, exact reproductions of human body scans for wedding cake toppers.  Not the first thing that popped into your mind? Is it just me? What a perfectly unreasonable, delightfully impractical application.  This next Call wants your artistic applications, practicality not required.  These calls are rare; don’t miss it…

CALL for ENTRIES: Order & Chaos

Posted on by R.L. Gibson

Learn more about the Order & Chaos exhibit at the Fred Parker Giles Gallery at EKU!PAPER or plastic?

Do you prefer boxes or bags in your pantry?  I like the structure of boxed pasta, beans & cereal, but I love the price of most things bagged.  I prefer not to store things in plastic, but I’m not convinced the process used to create cardboard is any better.  I own a lot of glass which inevitably involves breakage and the energy consumption involved in cleaning and/or sterilization. It can be difficult to distinguish the order from the chaos, but this Call offers us a second change.  Give it a shot…

I’ve been eating with strangers lately.  That is, I’ve had the privilege of eating family-style  –from farm-to-table dinners with 20 at a table, or a restaurant with 8 at a table.  It reminds me of stories my grandmother used to tell of Sunday dinners in Big Stone Gap, Virginia, when her family, that included 10 children, would just lay a sheet over the home-grown & prepared food on the dining room table after everyone ate, just in case friends or neighbors dropped by.  They didn’t have much except a wealth of food to share. I love the planned inclusion of unplanned guests and the stories that must have inevitably followed. This next Call offers you an opportunity to tell your own story.  Don’t miss the opportunity…

JUROR: Often dreamlike and enigmatic, Christine Brennan’s work features a host of symbolic and allegorical reference. Brennan’s images draw from the unconscious, leading the viewer into richly-lit narratives that evoke personal stories and associations.  As a painter and printmaker, Brennan works in oil on paper or board and hand-colored linoleum block prints. Never setting out to illustrate a specific theme or story, the artist creates each image as she goes, changing and shaping it along the way.

AWARDS:  1st Place $500, 2nd Place $200 & 3rd Place $100

I spent 10 years of my childhood as a resident of the state of Georgia in the United States. Many of my neighbors ran cottage food businesses.  In the State of Georgia, you can apply for a commercial license to produce a limited variety of foods in your home kitchen for sale to the public — like breads, candy, jams, jellies, nuts & more.  This “maker culture” shaped my entrepreneurial spirit as a child. Kudos Georgia.  This next Call also hails from Georgia and should inspire the maker in you.  Take a look…
