Some years ago I was asked to create an art piece for the premier exhibition of "High Art, High Chair" an annual invitational for artists in the Intermountain West - the US Rocky Mountain States. My creation was "Urban Shaman's Chair," the point being - in a world surrounded by frantic routine, contemporary noises, and rat race mentalities there is a cry for 'spiritual place' where one can acknowledge presence and existence. It is often hard to compose visions of nature in a daily routine while hard at work making the globe turn.
