K Gallery ~ Rising Seas: Where do we draw the line?
Today I had the great fortune of attending the opening exhibition of Rising Seas, at the K Gallery in the Rhythmix Culture Works located in Alameda. The theme explores the situation we find ourselves in at this time in history. There have been many civilizations that have come and gone; do we want to be another one of them?

. . . which featured, Where do we draw the line? (which has nothing to do with the song of a similar name by the Dead Kennedys, although each paraphrases the other). It was a dance performed by the Rising Seas Project and choreographed by KT Nelson (former co-artistic director of ODC/Dance).

The beautiful, impressionist representation of waves sweeping back and forth expressed the dichotomy
of the dancers (Our World?) being overwhelmed by them was a brilliant
metaphor for our rapidly sinking world.
Midway through the performance the audience was invited to join in on the action . . .
Then there was the exhibition to see with the work of Josie Iselin, Jan Watten, Ed Holmes, Christo Braun, Deb Sullivan, Charlie Sullivan, Jen Doyle Crane, Pons Maar, Maurice Ramirez and Ginny Parsons who curated the exhibition (link to Rising Seas works below).
