Bead Me Up, Scotty
- a crafty take on Star Trek.
PRESS RELEASE Caren Golden Fine Art is pleased to present Mirror Universe, the first solo exhibition by Devorah Sperber with the gallery. Mirror Universe will feature an entirely new body of work by Sperber based on images from the television series Star Trek. The title, Mirror Universe, alludes to the 1967 Star Trek episode Mirror, Mirror in which a transporter mishap swaps the crew of the Enterprise with evil counterparts, trapping them in a “savage parallel universe.” The concept of a mirror or parallel universe is a dominant theme in the show, and, in keeping with this metaphor, many of the works incorporate mirrors to view the work. Tell me you don't really want this displayed at your geek hole.

I'll bet you a hundred quatloos that Kirk actually had that first one hanging somewhere in his cabin.

ART LIKE I

geek hole??? I think there needs to be an acronym for people who do this kind of stuff. TMTOTH, or TWFW, maybe. too much time on their hands or too weird for words
-
Like Sulu would have anything to do with Uhura like that....
-
Wonderful stuff, Hank.
-
If gorgeous bead curtains were involved, EEQ, he might be tempted...
-
amazing- thanks Hank.

Heh -- no acronym, it's Artist Looking For A Niche. (It's not like she was necessarily doing it for fun: you do what interests you that you think will sell or stir up attention for your other work. The people who *aren't* professional artists who do this stuff are the ones who might have TMTOTH.) Wait, I guess that's ALFAN. Never mind. ;)
