April Anthony, artist and former Albany Bulb resident: Art That Moves, variable scale and media, 2010-2014
Forty-five years later, memories so vivid it could be yesterday. Weekend visits with Dad and his side of the family. Excursions to museums and art galleries. All this from a seven year old's perspective: boring. "Why don't these things move?", I thought to myself. Flash forward five years or so. Mom took us to participate in Peace marches & rallies in Golden Gate Park during the Vietnam War. Took me dumpster diving; taught me how to recycle. All this is a major part of who I became. As a result of this, I created my first pieces: art that moves, (hanging mobiles) using dumpster dived & recycled materials.
