'Here I am taking my artwork and I’m putting it right in the dump'


Tonya Borgeson doesn't hate her ceramic creations, she just ... well, you might have to read my feature on her, "Water Preservation at the Center of Borgeson's Solo Show," to understand just what the hell she's getting at with that quote above. It's my second feature on this West Duluth artist (read the first one here), who runs Snoodle Ceramic Studio & Gallery and is an art instructor at Lake Superior College when she’s not concentrating on creating her own artwork.

Elsewhere in the bin...

"Neko Case has Spoken: She Wants to Be a Ninja" :: In anticipation of her performance at St. Scholastica Wednesday with Giant Sand, New Pornographer Neko Case talked to the Budgeteer about Monkeemania, becoming a ninja and, strangely enough, Supertramp.

"Discover Duluth: 'Forgotten Park'" :: Of all the hidden gems in Duluth, this overgrown segment of Central Park/Zenith Park is probably the most unsettling. DuluthBudgeteer.com exclusive!

"CD Review: Jayme Stone and Mansa Sissoko's 'Africa to Appalachia'" :: This album, which traces the routes of the banjo through Africa, is, by far, the most original release of 2008. DuluthBudgeteer.com exclusive!

"Discover Duluth: Amity Creek Trail, Vol. II & III" :: Though it’s now closed off to automobiles, the second half of Seven Bridges Road (Amity Creek Trail) isn’t without its share of traffic. See why the overgrown road is frequented by hikers, cyclists, runners/joggers, horseback riders, photographers and, of course, all of the aforementioned enthusiasts’ canine companions.

"Discover Duluth: Canal Park, Vol. II" :: My photo essay series "Discover Duluth" returns to what is arguably the most well-known (and tourist-friendly) area of the Zenith City. DuluthBudgeteer.com exclusive!

Thus concludes THIS WEEK'S SHAMELESS BUDGETEER PLUG!
