Show Description:
The wheel has become so ingrained in our society that often the evolution of a culture is measured based on its mastery of this basic machine. However, we can pinpoint ancient, advanced civilizations with no documented use of the wheel. And with fuel prices rising, global warming looming, and suburbs expanding, we are forced to reevaluate the place this everyday object holds in our lives. Perhaps now actually is the time to reinvent the wheel.

Through art we have the unique opportunity to look at the wheel from a broader perspective, challenging its historical significance and envisioning a new life for it without a need to conquer perfection.

Sanctuary143 travels (by wheel) Friday, February 29th, 2008 to San Clemente to reinvent the wheel for your viewing pleasure.

Sanctuary143

Sanctuary143 {s143} at its core is a provocative and proactive art experience. We seek to offer the community new perspectives on art and music through a non-traditional experience that is accessible and unexpected.
