has been for sale for some time, as you have seen. The maintenance and ongoing development to keep our non-profit and idealistic platform for contemporary art running and safe from hackers etc. costs money that is no longer there. Because of small investments that are necessary now and the running costs, we will have to shut down with a heavy heart at the beginning of summer on June 21.

Based on the "Theogony", or birth of the gods, by the classical Greek poet Hesiod; order and structure emerges from primal chaos.

"Dragon", 2014, acrylic, dried leaves and spackling paste on fiberboard, 30 x 30 cm.
The leaves were pressed last summer, then mounted on the MDF panel with acrylic medium mixed with carpenter's glue, then slathered with spackling paste (while still wet.) After drying for several days, the piece was sanded, stained with acrylic, covered with spackling again, sanded again, and stained a final time. The "dragon" was then worked up from the exposed traces of the leaves and from the cracks and imperfections in the surface.
