for her installation piece "He'll Go Far." Renee utilizes a blender
and goldfish to challenge the question "Do different blending method
affect the calcium loss in fresh food?" Second place went to artist
Natalie Garduno for her wood/mixed media piece "My Periodic Table"
which plays with the ideas of 'elements' and 'inspiration.' Third

1976/2001" Paula's piece presents the pictures taken of the 'Face' on
Mars in 1976 and 2001.
Juror's Statement:
Juror's Statement by Ruth West and Sarah Attwood: " Art is a way of
knowing our universe.
Our quest for understanding has lead to the development of
technologies to pry open atoms and look to the farthest reaches of the
universe. All the while, an ultimate understanding of ourselves and
the nature and origins of life eludes us. The work of the artists in
this show spans this range of inquiry, from cosmology and
environmental concerns, to the smallest scales inside of cells and the
infinite permutations of patterns we see in nature. While posing more
questions than answers, each work takes a personal approach to the
notions of artistic practice as a mode of inquiry."
