So thanks to her we could see Joe Fig's exhibition! I liked Melissa Meyer's studio most! I like the artistic chaos in nearly all of the studios and am sure that each one of the artists keep "relics", as Linne does. "Relics" - memories and signs of their steps to that studio in that very moment!rossichkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03185784702539084622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2290332160821152086.post-89312326033216314572011-03-06T12:44:30.514-08:002011-03-06T12:44:30.514-08:00Wow, these dioramas by Mr. Fig are simply amazing!...Wow, these dioramas by Mr. Fig are simply amazing!

This is my first introduction to his work--I find it fascinating, bewitching and gives me much to ponder. I was struck by the similarity in the studios--the overflowing containers crowded onto the studio tables; altars of the artists' spaces.Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09461148136578592965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2290332160821152086.post-88746435187444586342011-03-04T06:24:40.036-08:002011-03-04T06:24:40.036-08:00Wow - smaller than an album cover?

It seems to have evaporated, can't find it now. As for a favorite, I totally connect with the messy ones since that is what mine looks like. I would have to select the last one because it's neat and orderly and looks ready to be played in (will be messy soon!) I wish there was a Studio Fairy who would come organize me each night :)<br /><br />Thanks Robyn and Lynne.michelle wardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15424558212275956184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2290332160821152086.post-11760249926284454722011-03-04T04:50:26.254-08:002011-03-04T04:50:26.254-08:00After all of that work Joe must feel he knows each...After all of that work Joe must feel he knows each person's studio as intimately as his own.Ro Bruhnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08766616012470244040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2290332160821152086.post-50161535016300521182011-03-04T04:46:45.723-08:002011-03-04T04:46:45.723-08:00Amazing!!

All of the studio's and Joe's amazing capacity for recreating the space and drawing you in to the story is truly captivating. One ponders just how many hours go in to each piece and how connected Joe must feel when he has completed them.<br />Robyn and Lynne thank you for bringing this to our attention!!
