- It was the Homeric hero Odysseus, who fought the Cyclops, that used this name, and put out the monster’s eye. I imagine that poster is nothing else but an Odysseus’ gesture: some kind of attack upon the eye.

Martin Klimas destroys a lot of clay to make his art. Combining the silence of Eadweard Muybridge’s horse pictures with the association-rich composition of a still life, Klimas breaks recognizable objects so they become something else, and stops us just at the moment of transformation. Klimas was born in 1971 in Singen, Germany.

James Borden was born and raised in Rockford, Illinois. He graduated from Dana College in 1980 with a Bachelor of Arts degree and a major in Humanities. He graduated from Wartburg Theological Seminary in 1987 with a Master of Divinity Degree. James currently lives in Zumbrota, Minnesota with his wife, Barbara Kopperud, Daughter, Irina, and son, Alex. In a restored 1880’s barn he works fulltime making all-wood kinetic sculptures called Timeshapes. Timeshapes are essentially mechanical weight-driven or spring-driven clocks, every part of which has been designed and built by James Borden. The pendulums and escapements are also of the artist’s own design. Timeshapes exhibit a wide, graceful motion and soft, woody, clicking sounds which can be mesmerizing and relaxing to watch and hear. In his Timeshapes James Borden presents a different vision of the passage of time: Less frenetic and urgent than the normal ticking of a clock; slower paced; peaceful; playful; something easier to live with.

My work is about light. Each work uses light-reflecting materials; Venetian gold, Ravenna glass and Carrara marble. For all who look, at each and every moment, light is held, captured, and let go – continually and continuously. It is a sublime engagement.
