Just One Day More!

Where does the time go?  There's just one day left before Magic Boxes, and we couldn't be more excited!  Did you get your ticket yet?




Tomorrow, we transform the Cube Gallery into a breathtaking, wild circus!  Complete with a tent, a fire spinner, clowns and a red carpet.  How awesome is that-- sexual and reproductive health, rolled out with a red carpet!

"Round Lake Cubed" is by our lovely host at Cube Gallery, Don Monet.



I suspect the PPO staff is going to want a day in that idyll following the magic and mayhem of Magic Boxes!  To me it is like sitting on the dock, looking out over that scene early in the morning with a cup of coffee.  I feel refreshed.


And hopefully, on the dock of that lake we will run into this amazing creature.
 



Vera Greenwood's "Magic Box" is made with flocking: it's fuzzy.  It's also gorgeous, very detailed and vibrant.



The stag seems to be caught in that moment when you come across each other on a trail, closer then either of your expected, and you just stare.  And then the deer runs away.  Those moments are always a little dreamlike and precious.

And continuing down the trail, Bozica Radjenovic seems to have drawn her inspiration for the earth itself.  To me, her Black Box looks like earthworm trails, and I can almost smell the wet earth and fallen leaves.




The words on the top are "All Mothers", "Living Things..." and "Matter."


Will you be there tomorrow, to show how much PPO matters to you?  And have an amazing time in the bargain!
