It will provide an opportunity to get to know one another, form bonds, inspire further talk throughout the conference, swap emails, check out websites, go to specific presentations, share publications, and dialogue with others.

"Lycia's work is perched, swaying, teetering and fully enjoying the loss of equilibrium...I am struck by her unique, mystic, creative power... With Lycia the mold was most certainly broken."
STEVE MURAKISHI. FORMER HEAD, PRINTMAKING, CRANBROOK ACADEMY OF ART, USA 1991
"Lycia's work touches -- deeply -- people's lives; her art creates community. Lycia Trouton's environmentally-conscious and complex monumental work with natural and, so-called, waste materials is compelling, intellectually rigorous, and just plain beautiful. Lycia brings to her work a commitment to public discourse, an engagement with social themes, an extraordinary intellectual rigor and a rare and refreshing integrity. Her public art is significant and beautiful."
