Altar Ego

 

Illness (Acrylic)



As I have mentioned in weeks prior, I am apart of an artist collective by the name of The Manifest Project.  The suggested donations at the Opening Event on Saturday, October 30th will benefit the Israeli-Palestine Project.  The mission of this project is to bring about an equitable and enduring peace between Israel and Palestine that honors and dignifies both the Israeli and Palestinian peoples.  This mission is consistent with the context in which people live in peace and security, mutual respect and honor.

I am so honored to be apart of this exhibit with several artists all representing the topic Altar Ego.  An altar or shrine is a holy or sacred place, which is dedicated to a specific deity, ancestor, hero, martyr, saint, daemon or similar figure of awe and respect, at which they are venerated and worshipped.  



Insanity (Ink and Pencil)



The exhibit asks: If you were to take a look at what you venerate or worship in the form of an altar or shrine, what would it look like?  What would it have in it?  What do we really make a priority in our lives?  What are you worshipping?  Altar Ego is an art event that explores this inquiry. 



Opening night reception is on Saturday, October 30 from 7pm-midnight at The Movement Studios, 2411 N. Clybourn, 2nd floor, Chicago, IL.
