I chose "An Homage to Error" as the theme of the closing exhibition, celebrating that somewhat inevitable mistakes shape us as people, providing opportunities and connections never encountered, otherwise.

Around Magnesium and Psychosis
CHRONIC inability to metabolize magnesium efficiently and a resulting *intracellular* deficiency has just been associated, in the last three years, with Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder (manic depression), as well as conditions of chronic anxiety and irritability.
Around Loss, Change & New Directions: Apologies & Explanations
paramedics and police officers used a plainclothes officer to slyly ask me questions, circled me, manhandled me, handcuffed me behind my back, informed me I was on a psychiatric form, wrapped me in a canvas bag, and strapped me to a stretcher.
Around Mandalas and Madness
These ones were different; they *felt* different. They were made without attachment or fear, with focus and concentration. They were powerful and they multiplied.
Around Noodle Soup
Perhaps this is the stuggle of every entrepreneur and every parent and this is merely my own manifestation of it.
Around the Art of Bipolar Business and the Business of Bipolar Art
As a bipolar person, when I'm manic I am extraordinarily productive, and just generally sharp. I'll work for a 15 hour stretch without losing my stride and will make few mistakes. I have the ability to juggle multiple projects with many details and complete them all quickly and to a high quality standard. I am more creative and artistic, with tremendous focus, drive, clarity, energy - you name it.
Around Framing the Individual
I produce work I'm proud of, I am accepted to juried exhibitions, I have a small following online - sometimes I even sell things. :p
