The New Adventures of Mrs. Chaim ben Mordecai: A Peach for a Peach

Vitural Pie

We were recently were donated peaches from a tree in Queens. I made a couple pies, crated them and mailed them. One to our generous donor, Harley and Micki Spiller in NY, and one to Catie to enact a virtual pieing in Chicago.

Here some pics of the crating process

Pseudoscience:
An therapeutic summer art lab
Saturday, August 11, 2007 6-9pm


HQ Gallery and independent curator Alison Beth Levy invite you to a jovial event of science-bent interactive art installations and performances. The show features artists whose hypotheses are infused with levity: the Eh Team, Cassie Thornton, Egnekn, Minister of Lamination, Meg Duguid, Catie Olson, and Sister Mary Manhattan the Astrologer. Together, they will create a fun and enlightening environment as a reprieve from the mid-summer Brooklyn heat. The event will take place in the Joymore Sculpture Garden located in the back courtyard of HQ.

Egnekn, Minister of Lamination, will be performing his metaphysical sound ritual with flat objects brought to him by the public. Canadian HQ founders, the Eh Team, will collaborate with "Against Maps" artist Cassie Thornton to create a sprawling hydraulic installation called The Backyard Purification System (BPS) . Mimicking a natural water table the BPS will process and regenerate tap water to support an isolated biosphere.

Their will also be two live comedic performances starting at 8pm. Hot from their recent weekend performance at Central Park, where they tested the humorous properties of the sponginess of meringue , duo Meg Duguid and Catie Olson will perform Piograms, a single pie-component balancing act. Expect a sugar rush from their deconstruction of pie. Afterwards, you can bring your problems and sins to sassy Sister Mary Manhattan the Astrologer, who will demonstrate the wisdom of the Great Illusion.

For more information on this phenomenal event, please reach HQ gallery at 718.418.7182 or Alison Beth Levy at 914.772.3974. Refreshments will be served.
