my name is Stacy Lynn wadell and I am an
artist participating in the exhibition
entitled area 919 it is a Diptic it's
it's a scene of a ship coming to shore
and which is a metaphor really for a lot
of things but in my world that ship
coming to shore is the way that things
come into being ideas histories origins
all of those things and so in no place
like I'm thinking about that Island
being a place that is somewhat foreign
and otherworldly and the meeting of that
space and the ship which has cargo of
various kinds coming together is a kind
of a space of tension between those two
sites coming and arriving to a place
that you don't know very much about and
that place sort of what is it embody and
so that tension between what we know and
what we think and what we believe and
who we are and who might become and what
we might encounter it's really something
that I'm thinking about all the time in
terms of my work and ideas but just in
terms of being you know in terms of
existing as a person fab blue color
you're wearing that fuse with son it's
an elemental color its sky its water it
also was sort of a formal decision in
terms of formal elements and principles
of art and design because the work is
mostly sepia-toned but it has an
underscore of an orange much like these
chairs so I thought why not bring in a
color that was its complement its it's
sort of hue complement which is blue
