INFO on the SHOW:



PARTHENO-GENIUS is a playful pun on the definitive word, parthenogenesis; which means to reproduce without the conjunction of opposite sex gametes. Thus, meaning reproduction, or creation, can happen without the involvement of the opposite sex. So then, this idea can be related to, spiritually; the ideas of inspiration and an 'immaculate conception.' Therefore, the artist is free to express himself, or herself, without physical help; save for the spiritual, or worldly, inspiration that compels the artist to create, or 'reproduce.'


Dune-Micheli Patten is a local and nationally recognized mixed-media artist who is also gaining international recognition. Houston-based, although world-focused, artist Dune Patten is largely a self taught artist; and is always in search and support for artistic development. This research and artistic development has taken him and his work to places such as Central America and Europe. Dune says, "...that in order to be a viable entity one must become like Abraham who wandered and followed his own path in faith that he was destined for something better. And in doing so, God was with him." Dune-Micheli was born in California but now lives and works in Houston, TX.

Ludmila Baklanova was born and raised in St. Petersburg, Russia. At age 18 she arrived in the USA in search of her path. As time passed, she went to school to learn English and try her hand in art. It took only one class of drawing to understand what she was capable of. Encouragement from teacher and friends led her to start exploring the unknown. She experimented with different mediums, from charcoal to acrylic. Completing only five very successful shows- and a sixth coming up- she has been surprising people with her uniqueness and strength. With such a humble artistic background Ludmila’'s artwork reflects the place where she comes from and her bright nature as an artist.
