I finished my pen and ink paintings of my twelve dox-ZENs. As I've mentioned, the images, painted on the pages of a Zen Buddhist book, are an exploration of the Buddhist concept that the mind is an endless series of three processes: craving, acting, and discontentment. And, they're a meditation on imperfection and impermanence.
The series will be part of the group show curated by Jane O'Hara called "Beasts of Burden" at the Harvard Allston Educational Portal in Allston, Massachusetts, March 13 – May 5, 2014. The multimedia exhibition includes 13 artists interpreting our complex relationship with animals and is presented by the the New Arts Center and Unbound Visual Arts.
My video "Dogs in Art," a three minute tribute to 5,000 years of canine muses, will also be on view.
This week, the framing, mounting, photographing, and shipping commences.
Breathe…
