“Celebration” |
|
My mission as an artist is to create art that elevates
the soul...my art addresses issues in this world using materials and ideas
that enhance and uplift the viewer...and to transport you out of this
sometimes depressing and drab existence and into a world of beauty, positive
emotion, and wonder.” _____________________________________ In Memory of 9/11 This year marks
23 years since 9/11. As the years have passed, not much is being written
about that day. However, poets, including myself, have never stopped using
the topic as a source of inspiration to write on themes ranging from
terrorism to grief, to patriotism. If we are never to let that horrible day
fade away, we MUST continue to write about it. Each year when September rolls
around there are too many current events to overshadow it. Especially this
year, an election year, it will be taking second place to all of those
controversies. You ask, why if election 2024 with all it’s important
happenings are front and center in our news and our lives, should we focus on
something that happened 23 years ago? Because it was a turning point for our
Nation. A defining event the likes of which had never and hopefully will
never happen again. This year
Garwood, in memory of the 23rd anniversary of 9/11, will present a “Words of
Remembrance Ceremony” on September 11 starting at 7 PM in Borough Hall, 403
South Ave, Garwood, NJ. Poems and essays written on the topic of the events
of 9/11 will be read by our residents. View my World Trade Center Journal which I’ve been keeping
since 9/11. Read my new poems and essays for this 23rd year. Also
last year I had a virtual exhibit on the Les Malamut Art Gallery website of
my digital collages “When
Memories Fade Away”. They reflected how I felt about time passing since
9/11 and people forgetting that day. _____________________________________________ Where I am Exhibiting Check out the
current virtual exhibit of my “Art
