Verjik Abramian Martin has painted a picture which evokes a childhood memory of a festival of fire (Chahrshanbeh Suri) in which the children dance around and jump over the fires to stop the sun from setting. The festival of Norouz follows which marks the arrival of spring and the revival of nature.

Laura Burke imagined a volcanic mountain created with natural and dyed wool fibers needle-felted together. Natural brown sheep fibers were used to create the basic mountain shape and dyed fibers were added to create depth and the fiery volcanic flow.

As far back as Sheryl Evans can remember she has had an appreciation for the solar system, and respect for the Sun for all its heat and power. Therefore she chose to design a "Solar Flare" necklace. This necklace is comprised of Sterling Silver, Fine Silver, 24kt Gold, and Copper and made completely by hand with the aid of a hammer, mill, saw and solder

Gayle Joseph decided to use fire itself to decorate pottery. To do this the items are placed in a pit or a barrel and are burned for a few hours and then left to smolder for a day or longer. The surface is then scrubbed and hand polished. The vessel was burned primarily with walnut scraps from Peter Vincent's workshop which imparted the beautiful black tone. The tiles were burned surrounded by shavings from Paul Casco's workshop that included many different rare woods - and possibly some brass shavings which may have caused the green flashing on the tiles.
