These recent works are gathered together with images taken from dreams and other travels to form a dual show entitled Vision Quest and Dreamworks. More's current work in luminescent luminescent oils and bold acrylics incorporates incorporates legends and symbols from sever- . al ancient cultures as well as her own personal icons. In "Acts of Sacrifice," a Mexican- inspired work using imposing Inca images, images, the tradition of sacrifice is reflected reflected in the ocular cavities of a central central skull. Smoking volcanoes recall the indigenous indigenous society that sacrificed thousands thousands to appease the gods. Belching smokestacks are also a symbol of sacrifice, sacrifice, the artist notes, "but now it's the great god of NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) for whom they are prepared to write off their people for. • She remembers the chills she felt walking along the Road of the Dead just before learning the gravel foundation foundation was actually made of half a million million human skulls. "The idea of sacrifice is integral to the Mexican people," she concludes. "While there, I got the sense that life is dispensable; the people didn't seem to have the same concept of individual mortality as North Americans." Travelling is often an intense experience experience for More. She clearly enjoys retreating retreating to her quiet Haydon studio after after accumulating a wealth of inspiration from wherever the travel bug has taken her.

The result was "The Big Apple", a vibrant expression of theatrical and everyday excesses in "the city that never sleeps." A compulsive "maker of things", More finds it hard to suppress her urge to create. Her teenagers often find her scribbling or sketching in her dream diary at 3 a.m. She even confesses confesses to drawing on a boulder with nail polish on one camping trip. "I'm a bit of a steam roller," she admits, in both her actions and her arguments. arguments. More is a successful jeweler, a dedicated high school art teacher and a follower of the teachings of Carl Jung, a Swiss psychologist, psychiatrist psychiatrist and author. One of her favorite pieces in the show is a sepia and brown-tone portrait portrait of Jung set against the open workings of a Swiss watch. More shares Jung's belief that dreams can be interpreted through universal universal or archetypal symbols. Her paintings are the result of an intuitive approach to life and a lifetime lifetime fascination with cultural, scientific scientific and family symbols. More says she has recently mastered mastered the art of lucid dreaming. "If you can find your hands or your feet in your dream, you can control them. You can actually script your own dreams." One dream-inspired canvas shows the artist herself on the brink of an immense immense and swirling skyscape. The dizzying dizzying vantage point actually gave a jolt to one of More's friends who has vertigo. The artist invites viewers to interpret interpret her paintings as they choose. She says she does not approach art as an intellectual exercise, but allows any unconscious influence to come through. -- Cindy More's Vision Quest and Dreamworks will be on display at the McLaughlin Gallery until July 31.
