Standing Rock Cultural Arts is honored to feature the work of Sheridan Leig=
h
from Alaska and Lori Fields from New Jersey in this exhibit.

Sheridan does beautiful archtypical paintings that remind one of portraits
from the Renaissance.  =A0She says in her artist statement,
=A0
=B2As I see and hear poetry in all things, I conceive my art is my soul's
Elysium, that which resonates the music of my being....I am just one of the
infinite instruments playing God's composition.=B2

More information on her art can be found at http://sheridanleigh.com/

Lori Fields work can be described as paintings and collages that are
anthropomorphic and visually hypnotizing.  She says in her artist statement=
,

=B3My collage and drawing based works begin as streams of consciousness. The
beings depicted evoke subliminal, mysterious worlds. It is another planet o=
f
my own creation; a demi-monde peopled with anthropomorphic 'angels with
attitude', mutants, exhibitionists, seducers, chimeras and other intimate
strangers. The animal and Asian imagery in particular seem to be obsessions
that have chosen me rather than the other way around.=B2

More information on her art can be viewed at http://myspace.com/moosedusty

This exhibit takes the perspective that the Earth is a Living Being, Gaia.
All living things are connected.  Taking it further, the artists have been
given permission to depict our world in whatever way they see fit, be it
fantastical and dreamy, or stark and sickly.

As Dayton environmental activist Dorothy Stang said before she was killed
last year in Brazil,

=B3When the forest dies, we all die=B2.
