they have
had some professional

thus the title
of the exhibit
"Connections".

chosen Alice
Smith, a Detroiter
and professor
at Wayne State,
Smith states,
"my quest
through art
expresses
my appreciation
and respect
for all humans
and everything
that has dwelled
upon this
earth, respect
for the unending
circle of
change."
Brian Pitman
is Christine's
connection.
They have
been friends
and associates
since graduate
school and
"share
a love of
all things
organic,
found objects,
discovery
and craftsmanship."
Allie McGhee
chose longtime
friend
Ibn Pori Pitts.
As budding
artists at
Cass Tech
Allie and
Ibn bonded
and remain
friends as
each expresses
their talents
with varying
applications.
The "Connections"
exhibit in
