Please see attached the Show information for Rain of Fire featured in
the Gallery 1313 Window Box.
May 12 - June 6, 2010 RAIN OF FIRE Lynn Harrigan and Scott M2 Curated by: Simone Rojas-Pick & Jessica Nagy Opening Reception: Thursday May 13, 2010 ı 7-10PM Rain of Fire marks the first installment of Intersections, a three
part series curated by Simone Rojas-Pick and Jessica Nagy, centered
around the concept of the “mash-up”; where two or more
voices/mediums/styles are combined to create a single work. The focus
of these exhibitions will be to explore the changeability of
environment and the limits of creation. Rain of Fire is a new multimedia collaboration between Lynn Harrigan
and Scott M2 that combines embroidery, poetry and video painting to
address the vulnerability of so many during these times of rapid
economic change. Created as part of their developing Oblique Poetries
series, the piece reflects the emotions of people trapped by the
economic collapse of recent times and the false promises of the global
new world order. Left exposed and unprotected, there is no solace in
the gospels of greed. Intersections is the first installment in the Launch Pad Project for
Gallery 1313’s Window Box; featuring 5 emerging curators, running from
May 2010 to April 2011. For more information abou the intersections exhibitions series please
