  • From "5 Works Of Art To See In San Diego In May" (KPBS): Siobhán Arnold and Meagan Shein: 'Requiem For (Our) Mother Natures' On view at Sparks Gallery through October 2021 Sien Collective is a collaboration between artists Siobhán Arnold and Meagan Shein, and they've installed a beautiful, suspended sculptural work at Sparks Gallery downtown. The installation consists of approximately 200 hand-sewn translucent flowers made from discarded thin plastics. The pieces float overhead and are part fluffy cloud, part moon jelly, part fairy magic and part surreal pastoral dream. It's stunning — and yes, highly 'grammable — but also thoughtful, meditative work. It builds on a previous recycled flower installation, "Vanitas," and is commentary on the work and identities of women, domestic work, community grief and life cycles. Details: Exhibition information. Viewable from noon to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturday and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday. Through Oct. 2021. Free. --Julia Dixon Evans, KPBSFrom the gallery: Created by Siobhán Arnold and Meagan Shein, the minds behind SIEN COLLECTIVE, Requiem for (our) Mother Natures is a new installation at Sparks Gallery consisting of 200 flowers hand sewn from found/recycled clear plastic meticulously hung into a cloud shaped form.
