ON THE COVER

as on the Periscope HQ building in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Earlier this year, Wang’s My Summer Memory was among the artwork of five Deaf artists featured in an exhibition, Exploring Deaf Geographies , at the Pyramid Atlantic Art Center in Hyattsville, MD. From the exhibition’s statement, “Deaf geographies are at once both physical and abstract spaces, ranging from Deaf community hubs such as Washington, DC, and Rochester, NY, to conversations, impressions, and memories shared by Deaf people expressing their identities.” The show was presented in partnership with the Dyer Arts Center, part of the National Technical Institute for the Deaf at the Rochester Institute of Technology. Artist Statement (April 2022): “My acrylic painting, My Summer Memory , reflects the beauty of a summer day from a childhood memory. In the scene, an Asian girl touches several morning glory flowers on top of her head. These flow - ers are also blooming everywhere and bring visual happiness seen in the girl’s face. I use my signature design style to convey this summer’s emotion. The lines, colors, shapes, and placements represent the summer’s col - orful beauty and brightness. The painting blends vibrant colors and various geometric shapes to create a summer story in a bold composi- tion. The painting symbolizes one of my childhood’s beautiful memo - ries and my perspective of a summer day’s uniqueness.”

The Symbolon provides a reading like no other. I began reading Tarot in 1964 and have given it up because the information provided by The Symbolon cards, a joint project created by a husband-and-wife team of psychologists with roots in spirituality, metaphysics, and astrology, provides a comprehensive overview of whatever issue at hand as well as specific direction for how to handle it. There is nothing like it. Ask me. For more information or to schedule the hour-long reading (or however long it takes) contact Rev. Victoria Pendragon, DD at dragonlady88@att.net
