Nick Abdalla, Barbara Sorensen, Howard Solomon, Joe Powers

Longtime Albuquerque artist Nick Abdalla finds that process is the most important.

“I’ve learned how to play again.”

Sculptor Barbara Sorensen’s work radiates with energy.

“I like the mark of the artist to show, and I think as a result there’s a lot of energy that’s infused in the work just subconsciously.”

Artist Howard Solomon creates his home, reminiscent of a medieval castle. It is made from scraps.

“When I look at a piece of scrap metal or junk, as we call it, it reminds me of something. It might look like a nose or an ear or a hand.”

Musician Joe Powers received his first harmonica as a child, a gift that turned into a lifelong passion.

“I really love the kind of music where I can close my eyes and I can make it my own.”
