โ€œLight I,โ€ by Constanza, will run for one night only, with an opening reception Friday, September 14th, from 6 to 8 p.m. at Material Art Space.

Constanza is Guillaume and Judith, husband and wife, who began an art club in Paris, France. This is their statement from the press release regarding the exhibition:

โ€œWe have traveled toย New York, and lived in Florida, and now Arkansas.ย Our art is a personalย digestionย of objects and ideas foundย in our differentย surroundings.ย The imagination is the real value.ย We are selling a piece of our imagination, our story,ย shaman studies, pie voleuse,ย art pauvre, art random,ย metapsy,ย metaxy, love and freedom.โ€

They go on to say: โ€œTo us this show is modesty. The candle holder is a place you can go to pray.ย ย It is like an altar.ย ย The altar is the visual link of somebody praying.ย ย We accept the found objects and put them in the light with a lot of simplicity.ย  Our way of living with the light inside us.โ€

This is one of the most interesting statements and press releases I have ever read and I have no idea what it means.
