Creative Minds Add Richness to Star Journey

Artists flourish in the rich medium of Second Life. Star Journey proudly supports the arts by exhibiting artists in its twelve Gateway Galleries. Art is selected for content that echoes the themes of these entry areas to the island. A revolving schedule assures an ongoing flow of new artwork. Below are the current artists displaying their work. Some have both RL and SL artwork available.

Beertje Beaumont

Beertje’s work is real life art which she sells in her own SL gallery as well as through the show in Star Journey. An artist for twenty years, Beertje says that her work is inpired by her own life. She is showing both mixed media paintings as well as photographs.

Artist’s statement:
My philosophy is to provide emotions in all my designs. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. And don’t hesitate to tell me your opinion.

Miro Collas

Born from the desire to express a thought or tell a story in the fewest simple lines, my RL stick figure series is titled "Struggle of Life."

It was the desire to blend my RL art with SL that led me to the 3D stick figures that are popping up all over SL.

Queen Edman

Queen Edman's art and sculpture fill the Gateway Gallery of The Spirit Incarnate. Queen's statement is below.

Welcome to my gallery.

Here’s a little bit of dirt on me (lol).

Born and raised on the eastcoast USA. I'm 43 ughhhhhh.

I actually joined SL twice. The first time I tried it I had no clue what I was doing and I believe I lasted about an hour. Two weeks later with the help of a friend I rejoined SL and it’s been almost 2 years now that I've been here; my born on date is 5/6/2007 (no parties please) lol.

Filthy Fluno

Filthy's paintings from real life are currently on display in the Gateway Gallery of The Motion.

Here is the Artist's Statement:

I've been making art from my imagination for as long as I can remember. I create symbols, textures, imagery, text and composition that merge into something cohesive enough to tell a story. It's also important for me to embrace and celebrate the qualities of whichever medium I'm using.

Gleman Jun

We're very pleased to be showing the work of SL artist Gleman Jun, now on display in the Gateway Gallery of the Unification. Most pieces include animated movement; some even interact with the viewer. Gleman's theme is "Convey depth through lightness." Here is his statement:

INTRODUCING GLEMAN JUN
After finishing his modelling studies at Second Learning (Italy) and some experience as a builder, he decided to completely devote himself to Art, the great passion he has shown since his childhood in RL. Fostered by the art dealer of Second Learning, Mr. Lion Igaly, he held his first building exhibition in "La Piramide" at the age of 4 months. The good results achieved on that occasion gave him the motivation to attempt this kind of activity.

Quadrapop Lane

The new artist showing in the Gallery of The Perfect Union starting August, 2009 is Quadrapop Lane of Austalia. Her pieces are fascinating 3D shapes of scripted design and color. Please come see!

Here is the Artist's Statement:

In July of 2007, I finally decided to see what my friend Wolfie Rankin had been raving about on an email list for the last 6 months and gave SL a try... I'm still here and have been inworld almost every day since.

Sachi Nozaki

The bright and engaging art of Sachi Nozaki is now on display at the Gateway Gallery of The Matrix. She even made a special sculpture of a light emanating from a dark cupboard, an analogy from Geer's Star Journey Cosmology book!
