Resume in a Bottle

Launch date: September 1, 2004

The current performance art project originated from the idea that, since 2001 and the imploding of the American economy, the resumes of many that were traditional middle class, hard working, educated, and successful people might as well be thrown into the ocean. It's about that 'ocean' of resumes - and lives - of the individuals who have become philosophical, have re-invented, or have changed course, as if responding to an unfamiliar ocean current in today's political and economic climate.

Art Without a Safety Net is about artistic projects that are created because the cause is there, and a project or work is accomplished without biasing it toward the safety net of acceptance in the traditional sense. It's anticipated that the work or project may inform, amuse, educate, or disturb, strictly on its own merits.
