Founded in the early evening of the postmodern day, Dactyl Foundation supports an aesthetic that is informed by science, history, and philosophy and that takes into consideration both the intellectual and intuitive responses to art. This mission guides our visual art exhibitions, readings, screenings, and performances, which are supplemented with research, conferences and lectures, bringing the sciences back into the arts.
Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no tomorrow. To forget time, to forgive life, to be at peace. -Oscar Wilde, writer (1854-1900)
No Longer Emptyis Revitalizing Space and Inspiring Creativity in Brooklyn New York.
"NO LONGER EMPTY is an innovative project involving a group of artists and curators who are interested in exploring a new paradigm for making and presenting art.
A series of exhibitions and events is planned that will utilize multiple vacated storefronts and offices in Manhattan. NO LONGER EMPTY was conceived specifically to encourage an artistic response to our present economic condition and the effect on both the urban landscape and the national psyche. The numerous vacated buildings in New York City provide an opportunity for artists to revitalize these spaces with thoughtful, sustainable art installations.
“We see an opportunity here to create something positive from the current climate. Art can thrive in this environment and lead the way towards creative ways of thinking and dealing with these changes.”
The curators will be shaping a dynamic inter-related series of art installations, video works, sculpture, photography, painting, sound art and performance, installed not in traditional gallery or museum settings but in the public domain, suggesting new models of community art. -Excerpt taken from No Longer Empty Introduction

Painting, Oil on Canvas on Cardboard Paris: Autumn, 1886 Private collection
Sometimes I think what made Van Gogh so amazing was his loneliness. For me no other artist captures that feeling better or with more passion. Van Gogh often used whatever materials her could get his hands on for his art. His masterpieces found him in the oddest of times with materials such as cardboard for his canvas.

Love feels like this painting looks. Blossoming and full of potential. Beauty reaching for the sky in every direction. Barely touching the ground, it's such a perfect day.
