Queen of the Sun - begins today at Northwest Film Forum

Queen of the Sun was the film that enlightened me to the plight of the bee crisis at the last film festival I attended in Seattle.  It was truly a fabulous film with an incredible musical score that matched the mood and scenery composed and played by Jami Sieber, a Seattle area Electric & Acoustic Cellist, Vocalist and Composer.

Jami's depth as a performer is only matched by her life-long commitment to the environment and matters of social justice.  She believes in the interconnectedness of all beings and has a rich history of supporting causes that are near and dear to her heart.  If you can take time to see this film, it will be time well spent!  Ms T.

QUEEN OF THE SUN: What Are the Bees Telling Us? is a profound, alternative look at the global bee crisis from Taggart Siegel, director of THE REAL DIRT ON FARMER JOHN. Taking us on a journey through the catastrophic disappearance of bees and the mysterious world of the beehive, this engaging and ultimately uplifting film weaves an unusual and dramatic story of the heartfelt struggles of beekeepers, scientists and philosophers from around the world including Michael Pollan, Gunther Hauk and Vandana Shiva. Together they reveal both the problems and the solutions in renewing a culture in balance with nature.

Treat yourself to 'Motion Mysteries' by Meredith (Marni) Jenkins at Georgetown Art Attack

Inspiration arrives in many forms and Meredith (Marni) Jenkins's will delight and inspire audiences with her artist flexibility, true talent and vision that she will share at her One Day Only Showing of 'Motion Mysteries’ at Georgetown's Art Attack this Saturday.  In 2009, Marni took an artistic leap and as Jami Sieber played the electric cello and dancers from the Equus Project danced with horses, she photographed what she saw and felt.  The strength of the horses in motion, captured next to the equally graceful athletic beauty of the dancers is breathtaking and Marni captured amazing beauty in motion.   


As with most art, you must see it to appreciate it and this is no exception.  Clear some time on Saturday and come celebrate what Marni has created.  After 7:30 pm Jami Sieber will be performing at the Collette Collins Design Studio.  This will be an event that is talked about long after the day is over.  Marni has taken great care in creating mixed media scrolls of photographs and mounting them on specially selected hand made paper.  She is thoughtful throughout all parts of the artistic process with a keen eye and it shows in her finished product.

Collabration of Artists creates mixed media sensation

In 2009, Jami Sieber, played her electric cello while horses moved with the dancers from the Equus Project. Meredith "Marni" Jenkins took photographs and has produced several series of photographs from this moving performance.

The Equus Projects is home to Dancing With Horses, a dance company that partners dancers with horses and their riders.  The goal is to merge the artistry of dance and riding into work that combines physicality with theatrical image. The Equus Projects partners professional dancers with horses and their riders to create site-specific performance works that merge the artistry of dance with the athletics of equestrianism. The company creates works for arts and equine venues that are virtuosic and diverse, and exchanges dance and equestrian pedagogy with members of each field, to establish an interdisciplinary performance language.

Jami and Marni will be together at the Georgetown ART ATTACK this Saturday.  Marni will be showing her photographs of this cutting edge event and Jami will be performing starting around 7:30 pm.  Join them for this special event.
