SITEstore is pleased to present a Storesalon with local artists SCUBA. Come finish up your Holiday shopping on Saturday, December 21, 2013 from 10a – 5p with a variety of handmade art objects. SCUBA will present small ceramic sculptures and wares. Many of these objects are a part of a year-long series of arctic-themed projects that include a solo exhibition titled ICE POP at the Center for Contemporary Arts in Santa Fe and a cross-country trip in Ice Shelf, their mobile exhibition truck.
SCUBA is Sandra Wang and Crockett Bodelson, collaborative artists from Santa Fe, NM.They met in San Francisco in 2007 and started sharing their visual ideas over a collaboration of hundreds of miniature paintings. As this body of work grew into the thousands, they began assembling the paintings, side-by-side, into wall installations called continents. In current works, they continue to explore creative collaborations as a construction process that embodies individual elements within a cooperatively-defined composition.
In 2011, they moved to Santa Fe, NM and ran Caldera Gallery for one year. During this time, SCUBA curated nine exhibitions and hosted community events that included web-casted lectures, music performances, movie screenings, readings, a telegram service and art hunts.
