My Orbit
This piece is composed of several parts on the wall. There are three main phases with a spherical center on each. The moss on the central component grows incrementally from the first stage to the third stage. What surrounds the moss balls are abstract forms representing people in my life. The textures and shapes reflect how I feel about these individuals. It was inspired by changes in life and relationships

In the Blink of an Eye
This piece has three parts on three pedestals. The first part is a bowling ball form which emerges vines and tubes that connect to the second part. The second part has a moveable hourglass. The third part is a set of bowling pins have flowers blossoming out of the top.
A year ago, I was getting ready to go bowling and ended up at the hospital after having a medical emergency. The piece reflects on that experience and shows how fragile life is and how it can change in a blink of an eye.

Cave
This piece is a cave-like environment built into the wall. It has stalactites and stalagmites made of foam, a humidifier, and the bottom holds a heat mat that warms the sand. The piece creates the feeling of being in a damp, warm environment similar to environments preferred by snakes. The inspiration was my own snakes and their ideal living conditions.

Shape, Space, Play
Porcelain, thread, wood tables
Liz Quan’s organic, sensual life forms invite you to touch them and reward you with a journey of play, meditation, and discovery. Intimate in scale, they rest in the spaces between pattern and randomness, growth and stillness, fragility and strength. These elemental forms create a sense of contemplation and memory through movement, sound, color, and grace. Like shells, stones, or prayer beads, they engage all the senses and touch something fundamental within us.

Marina Nicoreanu
This piece has a clothing rack extending from the wall with soft textures and clothing hanging from it. An important part of the piece is the scent. There were times in my childhood when my mother was away at work and the scent of her clothing would bring me comfort – that is what inspired the piece.

Hoop Dancing and Flow Arts
Flow Arts includes a variety of disciplines that combine skill-based techniques and creative expression to reach a state of mind that you might feel when doing something you love, called flow. Dancing, juggling, fire spinning, and object manipulation are all flow arts. Hoop dancing uses object manipulation and dance to serve as a form of expression through movement. For me, this simple polypro circle creates a space to explore new ways of connecting with myself through free-flowing dance to my body and mind in new ways every time I play with the hoop.
Isolation
This piece is made up of two main parts on the wall and audio instructions. The first part has three figures demonstrating different flow art movements. The second part has three life-sized hands holding a hoop to illustrate the steps involved with a “isolation” movement. “Isolation” is a movement that traces the circle of the hoop by guiding the point of the hoop that is connected to your hand in a continuous circle to create the feeling of the circle floating in front of you.

This is an interactive piece – you are invited to deconstruct the piece on the wall. Feel free to tear away at the surface. It will continue to change during the exhibition. This piece explores the emotional complexities of depression.

Sarah Heller
Hawaiian Shore
There are two main parts to this piece. It has a flowing fabric against the wall – representing the water and the waves. Below that are lava rocks similar to the ones found in Hawaii. It was inspired by a memory I had of a visit to “Sandy Beach” on the island of Oahu. The water was rough, cool, and calming and this piece brings to mind fond memories of time with family there.

ADHD and Me
This piece is made up of three parts – a painting on the wall, cement coffee cups, and a soft base. It is inspired by my own experience with ADHD. The painting represents my thought processes. The coffee cups are made of cement to represent executive dysfunction. ADHD weighs down my ability to work and I often self-medicate with caffeine.
