Special Recognition, Upstream People Gallery in Omaha, Nebraska 9th
Annual Collage, Digital and Mixed Media Exhibition, 2007
Artist
CONNIE LIVINGSTON-DUNN of SPRINGFIELD, TENNESSEE has received a Special
Recognition Merit Award for her artwork in the "9th Annual Collage, Digital
& Mixed Media International Juried Online Art Exhibition” hosted by www.upstreampeoplegallery.com
.
This international exhibition received over 300 entries from around the world and
59 artists were selected by the juror Larry Bradshaw, Professor of Art at the
University of Nebraska at Omaha.
Professor Bradshaw states this about this specially recognized work:
“Connie Livingston-Dunn of Springville, TN has mastered the digital media in
the wonderful layering of imagery which is quite successful in her piece
“Dreamer”. The fanciful fractalizing overlapping the brain area of the
silver-like face portrays the idea well.”
The exhibition will be on display online during June, 2007 at www.upstreampeoplegallery.com
and continue for 12 months, closing May 31, 2008.
Further information in the artist’s own words:
"Dreamer" uses pictures I took in Mexico of a sculptural piece and of
a doorway in the Feathered Conch Temple at Teotihuacan. I combined
them with fractal images of the Mandelbrot figure and with parts of a sepia
photograph from the late 1800's of people climbing the Great Pyramid in Egypt.
"Dreamer" is about altered states of consciousness based on love and
dreaming great dreams of unity and peace.
