Artist Reviews:
Things of nature unknown: The
Art of Edith Garcia
By Robin Rimbaud and Jay
Miskowiec


Broken mouths drawl their
silent words at you as
retracted eyes seek a hollow
sightline. As if satisfied,
tongues lip their lips and
writhe in self loathing.
Dismembered figures crawl as
if on broken glass ...
