The concept of the exhibit's theme
is loosely based on the concepts of Rube Goldberg; the Thingamabob is a
metaphor for the creative process and how artists feed one method into another
when creating works of art. Some of the featured works in the exhibit highlight
individual elements while others feature multiple systems.
"Thingamabob"
features art that is in the eye of the mechanically inclined and in a group
show of artists, including John Jackson of Jefferson, New York, Tom Hlas of
Norfolk, CT, Lewis Schaffer from Ridgefield, Deborah Rauh from Westport, Sara
Roche from Weston, and others.
