Despite the differences in media, all of the artists’ works speak to each other. A strong exhibition will always create a greater meaning than the sum of the individual works, and these three artists have done that in a unified way. Words on the globe Imagine, very clearly articulate Cecile’s thoughts and gives the viewer a starting point of language from which to explore the themes, while works like Hope Crossing merge language, data, images, with the illustration of one of the primary means of migration to North America / Turtle Island; both in the past with the first waves of immigrant European settlers, in the late 19th and 20th century, Asian, Indian & Jewish refugees and immigrants, and most recently, Syrian refugees.  Rich’s audio work directly ties his compositions to Lynn and Cecile’s work, and—literally—sets a tone for the experience as visitors enter the Gallery. His sounds stand alone as audio artworks, but activate the sculptures and paintings in unique ways. Lynn’s works run the spectrum from abstract concepts of movement and change (sound waves, shifting tectonic plates, primal amino acids in space, the movement of the heavenly bodies) to darker themes like the migration of both positive and negative ideologies, and reasons for migration (chaos, violence, death).
