SPACE benefit art auction - Hello Kristen Cliffel

Posted in Category Events

Once a week, the SPACES blog will feature an artist who will be donating work to our benefit this year.

Kristen Cliffel, an internationally renowned artist, lives and works in Cleveland. Cliffel will be donating a small cupcake sculpture, featuring the winning bidder's choice of frosting message, to Optical Delusions: Last Days on the Viaduct.

Cliffel has said, "Creating artwork is the way I express my questions, concerns and hopes for the future. Being a wife and mother, I find myself wedged into roles that both trouble and delight me. The emotional concept of 'Home,' belonging to someone and someplace, seem integral to human fulfillment. The perilous and circuitous routes to these goals are what I investigate in my sculpture. Connection, safety, security, hope and fear are some of the emotional triggers that crystalize ideas for me."

Guests can preview Kristen's and other artists' work via our benefit website. Mobile bidding will begin on 10/27/14.
