Biore and GenArt Uncover/Discover Art Competition
Hey y’all! Do me a favor and take a minute to support my dear friend, Gudrun Cram-Drach, in her art.
She’s a semi-finalist in a web-based competition with her animated master’s thesis film “One Skin.†There is an online voting period until August 31, 2007, and it’d be great if you checked out the website.
It’s easy to vote: they just want your email address and nothing else, and you don’t have to watch the films to make a choice (unless you want to). The films are pretty cool, and there are other categories you can vote in too (fashion, music and art).
Please go here: Uncover/Discover and click on FILM to find her film One Skin. Her film is 10 minutes long, and full of gorgeous imagery.

See what I mean?
I’ve always loved Gudrun’s vision and it’s so exciting to see her finishing her formal education and moving into the career she’s dreamed of for so long.

Synopsis: Mary is confronted by different paths of womanhood — independence at a cost or the confinement of traditional roles. In her efforts to rise above these limiting scenarios, Mary is offered a glimpse of freedom in the bird she seeks as well as a potential solution in the actions of a rebellious little girl.
So go forth and vote! Thank you!











"In summer we live out of doors, and have only impulses and feelings, which are all for action, and must wait commonly for the stillness and longer nights of autumn and winter before any thought will subside; we are sensible that behind the rustling leaves, and the stacks of grain, and the bare clusters of the grape, there is the field of a wholly new life, which no man has lived; that even this earth was made for more mysterious and nobler inhabitants than men and women. In the hues of October sunsets, we see the portals to other mansions than those which we occupy."
~Henry David Thoreau
