Sticks & Stones Mac OS

Posted on  by

Sticks Card Game: This is a variation of a card game "Phase 10". Instead of 10 phases of requirements that everyone must do, this game has random challenges on sticks. My wife's aunt (my aunt-in-law?) presented the game to us the other day and I offered to. Welcome To Your Jungle Home. Set in a lush Malaysian jungle an hour away from Kuala Lumpur, The Sticks is an off-grid glamping retreat featuring 12 unique houses furnished with snug beds, plush duvets and water heaters with spring water.

Artist Statement: Meg Hogan Campbell
My work is connected to my mother and her artwork, home design, her generally open-minded creative outlook as well as her generous love. I feel connected to Hannah and Blake’s work in the same way. I am nourished and inspired by them. Hannah is a third generation artist. Otherwise, I am floundering in the dark artistically and “life-istcally”… and that’s good. Mistakes and mis-starts have made me who I am. I continue to try to make unique, new art and, as I age more old and crusty, I have always learned life by making art. I am an English major and English Literature fanatic and that adds another dimension I hope. Nature calls as well. I have a love for the earth that stems from a grandfather and a dad who hunted and fished just so they could be in the woods. Therein lies the theme of most of my art.

Artist Statement: Hannah March Sanders
Miscommunication and intentional obfuscation of reality lead to a misunderstanding of the world around us. Through analyzing our use of fossil fuels in large scale collaborative installations, investigating domesticity and the female body in drawing and print, and executing painstakingly quilted asides about clickbait articles, a dark sense of humor emerges. I enjoy the contrast of labored, repetitive processes such as hand quilting and crochet with the immediacy of the human desire for convenience in travel, information, and entertainment. Drawing is at the core of my artistic practice. Combined with appliqué and quilting techniques, the multiple possibilities of the print allow for endless creation, destruction, and reconfiguration, providing flexibility in the arrangement of forms and compositions. Any scraps from my process are repurposed into my “Foot prints,” crocheted low-relief sculptures that embody the form of clouds/spills/storms, leaving little to no waste behind. Minimizing waste is essential to my work conceptually, as it combines an exploration feminist and family body politics with an investigation into environmental and social catastrophes.

Artist Statement: Blake Sanders
I make prints to connect with a broad audience in a fashion that is both mediated and personal. The privilege of the multiple allows work to be seen by viewers in a variety of spaces and circumstances simultaneously, but the evidence of the artist’s hand bridges that perceived distance. The attention to detail, the respect for craft, the collaborative and interactive nature of the medium attracts people to my work who would not typically engage with contemporary art. Contemporary theory and techniques are incorporated with established printmaking processes in my practice to create work that is at once linked with the present and the past. In this way, my creative work parallels my interest in evolution and natural history. Compositions and motifs occasionally nod toward art historical precedents, while loud colors, and new-fangled techniques place the work firmly in the contemporary milieu. Relief printing on alternative upcycled substrates, lithography using more sustainable materials, and digitally informed execution in a variety of media are but a few generations in my own recent evolution.
