\"Hodgepodge\"Hodgepodge is delighted to be hosting the talented Bob Privett. About his art, Bob states, \u201c When I work on a piece of art, my process and vision for each work is deeply personal. Sometimes I struggle even to find the right words to describe my work when it is completed because I have my own personal and intimate connection with the piece just as each viewer of the work will have their own personal connection. I feel that art is truly in the eye of the beholder because of the emotions and feelings that connect a person to a particular work of art.\u201d<\/p>\n

Her passion for art started at the age of nine by simply folding paper into a variety of shapes and forms known as Origami. By her early 30s she had moved on to mosaics. Now her artwork is a mixture of ink, watercolors, acrylics, and oils on canvas. \u201cI want families and children to understand that through our artwork we can develop a togetherness,\u201d said Lankovich. \u201cI also want them to know that everything they leave behind is just as important as if they were here.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Concept<\/strong><\/p>\n

Participating artists are randomly matched in sets of 3 and given 10mins to perform. NO MEDIA aims to bring together artists from a broad range of performable disciplines (poets + dancers + expanded cinemaistas + free jazzers + audio\/video noise makers + etc) to challenge the conventions of their practice by responding in real time to artists from other disciplines.<\/p>\n

The Rules<\/strong><\/p>\n

No Media At The Beginning!
\n[NO preparation is allowed. Bring your tools, devices, instruments, props, etc., but you\u2019ve got to start with a blank slate. NO time will be allotted for \u2018setup\u2019. There will be a 2min turn-around time where you can carry your stuff up and meet your collaborators]<\/p>\n

No Media At The End!
\n[NO documentation allowed. It happens once && in real time.]<\/p>\n
