The Road Not Taken
This year’s juror show theme centers around the well known 1916 poem by Robert Frost entitled The Road Not Taken.

This year’s theme, The Road Not Taken can be explored as a whole or focused on a certain phrase or aspect of the poem by the artist.
Who is left behind when one goes down one path and not the other? What do we sacrifice for taking the road less traveled? The poem is to be interpreted by the individual artist.
