Author’s Note: One of my mixed media collages was recently accepted & exhibited in a show featuring local artists, & organized by a collective comprised of said artists: The name of the collective stands for Sanctuary for Polk’s Arts, Culture, & Education (or S.P.A.C.E. for short)—& this was the first official exhibition put together by them (hence the name “The Big Bang”)
