Aesthetica Magazine

Monday, December 12, 2011



I am excited to share the news that my multimedia installation Incubation was selected to be included in Aesthetica Magazine's 2012 Creative Works Annual. Incubation was recently exhibited at the Burroughs Gallery at East Carolina University and is scheduled to be exhibited at the Black Door Gallery in Cape Girardeau, Missouri in 2012.

There were over 3,000 submissions and 75 artists were selected to be featured in the publication.

From Aesthetica Editor Cherie Federico: "I would like to offer you my heartfelt congratulations on being shortlisted for the Aesthetica Creative Works Art Award. The caliber of entries this year was exceptionally high, and so, I feel honored to have had the privilege to view this year's 3000 works. I am delighted that you've made the shortlist and we will be announcing the winner upon publication of the CWC Annual. Congratulations on your achievement."

From the Aesthetica blog:

The Aesthetica Creative Works Annual is a stimulating anthology of new works that explore contemporary artistic practice, bringing together 75 artists who represent contemporary visual culture across a range of media.

Artists from across the world are presented in this collection, and through this international representation it’s possible to see works that are being produced today in different contexts; yet several of these works, although diverse in medium, explore related ideas. Many of the overriding themes are centered on identity, location, economy, 21st century alienation, politics and globalization.

The works in this collection fuse the personal with the global and unite to communicate a wider message about the world in which we live.


The Annual can be purchased online at www.aestheticamagazine.com/shop.htm
