  The event took place on August 9, 2008, at the McColl Center for Visual Art in Charlotte, North Carolina and was moderated by Allison Luce, an Affiliate Artist.
  ...
  Allison Luce's abstract sculptures express the notion of the human body being a shelter for the soul while exploring the ephemeral nature of existence and the mystery of eternity. Luce draws inspiration from nature as well as art historical sources and attempts to connect her current presence with a visual history from the past. In her most recent body of work, "The Serpent Tree," Luce examines the frailty of the body and the fallibility of man - questioning mental and psychological fragility, femininity and her struggles with the concept of eternity.
  ...
  Luce has experienced this confusion first hand with a gallery director rejecting her work because of its clay construction. She was told dismissively, "We don't look at clay.
  ...
  Allison Luce received her BFA degree from Ohio University and her MFA from Hunter College. Ms. Luce has had work appear in IMAGE Journal.

  The assembled panel members represent diverse life and career experiences and bring unique perspectives to the table with a common goal to foster open discussion among themselves and the audience about the meaning and processes they employ while creating art in a postmodern context. Their work deals with topics ranging from sexuality and domesticity to child-rearing and spirituality. Through their art, they are seeking to define and re-define what it means to be a woman and what it means to be feminine. As women using a material that is often considered "low art" and laden with stereotypical gender associations, they are seeking to stretch the boundaries of clay as a material.
