For those of you who are new to follow SoapSkeptics, we are two artists from New Jersey. We recently began filming short interviews with local artists about how today's culture influences their art practice and the way they view art.

We are doing this because in the present moment, SO MUCH is happening-- not just in the art scene, but in our society as well. Culture and art go hand in hand. We want to capture a little chunk of today's history and society so that one day we can look back on this time of information overload and maybe try to make some sense of it... or just a little part of it. 

Traveling across America to interviews local artists of all mediums will help us collect a wide variety of perspectives and influences. These interviews and our experiences will be filmed by us, produced by us, edited by us, and exhibited by us as a full length documentary film.

We will also be making our own art while on the road. We plan to make a weaving to represent every state we stop in; each weaving will be soley made our of raw natural materials found in that location. Along with our weavings, we will have our own personal sketch book which we will draw/write in throughout our journey and we hope to even collaborate with some of the artists we meet with. All of these art works will be published into a book that will serve as OUR OWN visual interpretations of our trip. 

So please, check out our kickstarter and help us reach our goal of $5,000 by the end of June.

Thank You & Peace,

Andrea & Rosie
