Katherine Sandnas requests financial support for the time needed to work with Ruriko Miyamoto to produce a new collaborative artwork created by uniting clay bodies’ exclusive to each country. Our collaboration will take place the month of November, 2016. Obtain financial support for Katherine Sandnas and Ruriko Miyamoto’s upcoming exhibition: A Collaboration Between Japan and the United States of America. The exhibition is to be held at Bemidji State University’s Talley Gallery, and will run from 11/1/16-12/2/16. The Evaluation plan for measurable outcomes include: 1. Provide collaboration time needed for Katherine Sandnas and Ruriko Miyamoto to preform research and development for a new collaborative artwork. 2. Secure the funding for the construction of pedestals for the exhibition to be held at Bemidji State University’s Talley Gallery. 3. Secure travel expenses for Ruriko Miyamoto’s attendance and participation in our exhibition opening and artist talks scheduled for November 1 at the Talley Gallery. 4. Develop and update my Web site and produce public relations materials regarding our work.
I do not believe I can measure the outcomes precisely. The Tally Gallery at Bemidji State University stated it was a very successful exhibition with high attendance. Ruriko Miyamoto and I continue to work together for our next collaboration. The time we had for research and working together was a treasured and valuable experience for us. Our working process, though we are not together now, is still gleaning new techniques and concepts.
