BWW Blog: Maty Cameron - College Theatre: The Family I Never Knew I Had

I joined community theatre when I was fourteen. I had played sports my entire life. Playing sports with the same group of girls my entire life was competitive, caddy, and miserable. And then I joined the theatre world. Yes, the theatre world is competitive, and there are many people who can be caddy, but it was different here: there was an entirely new aspect to this: a sense of family. They were a shoulder to cry on when I needed it, they supported me when I was in shows elsewhere, they were there. It was the first non-biological family that I had formed myself, and that was the first time I realized I would never leave theatre.

Cynthia-Reeves Opens Sarah Amos Collography Exhibit Today

Landscape is not merely the world we see, according to master printmaker Sarah Amos; it is a way of seeing the world, both real and imagined.  For over thirty years, Amos's marks on paper, a visual language of dotted lines traversing across the picture plane, reveal windows into her life's journey to the States, with traces of aboriginal and cultural identity never lagging far behind.  In Amos' words, 'I record, observe, assemble and archive organic objects, cultural relics, places, tools and experiences, creating a highly personalized iconography.  My drawings, paintings, and prints are not only visual diaries, but a language of the real, the imagined, and the half-forgotten'.
