This years theme is baggage , it serves as a starting point of discussion for these artists. The word baggage serves as an allegory for the notion of things that we hold onto from our past. It is a mental collection of pain, pleasure, fulfilled and unfulfilled desires, exposing the vulnerability of man to his own psyche. These exhibiting artists attempt to understand this human trait to which we all fall susceptible. Chastain is located at 135 W. Wieuca Road , across from the baseball fields.
