“If the world were clear, art would not exist.”-Jorge Luis Borges�Artists absorb the world around them. Their environments, that which they can feel and touch and see – and that which they can’t. Sometimes that which they can only dream of.  They absorb it and translate it into a language that affects us all in some way.This project is a study of translations. I presented 25 artists within Second Life with a concept of creating art with these words in mind: Drowning. Melting. Polar bears. Arctic. Culpability. Corporate greed. Inevitability.  Extinction.What they have done is breathtaking and beyond any realm of my expectations.Welcome to Melt – Please explore and involve yourself in this temporary world created here.
