DESCRIPTION:Open 12-5pm Saturday with "BLACK LAND / RED LAND" an exhibition of art and poetry curated by Margot Massey & David Coppin Lanegan in the Punch Gallery. With live performances on the Punch Stage 3-5pm.\n \n\nThis April\, PUNCH handed the gallery space over to guest curators Margot Massey and David Coppin Lanegan for an exhibition that pairs visual art with written poems.\n \n\n"BLACK LAND/RED LAND" invites the viewers to experience the natural alchemy between two given forms of art created separately from one another.\n \n\n"Al-kimiya? is the Arabic word for ALCHEMY. It traces to the ancient Egyptian word kmt\, simultaneously meaning 'Egypt' and BLACK LAND. The nation of Egypt identified so heavily with the dark\, fertile soil of the Nile Delta\, that kmt also\, in the ancient Egyptian context\, implies a contrast to the empire's surrounding desert\, beyond the two literal meanings. Full of high strangeness\, sand demons and demigods\, this wasteland was called 'deshret'\, or RED LAND."\n \n\nMargot Massey is a figurative artist based in Eastern Washington. She is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Art at Central Washington University.
