Mara Alper (Media Arts, Sciences, Studies) presented her documentary “Forgiveness” at the Center for Peace in Vancouver, B.C. The documentary uses a psychological and philosophical approach to forgiveness to tell four powerful stories from a prisoner, a recovering alcoholic, a grieving mother and renowned world leader, Archbishop Desmond Tutu. A day-long workshop on forgiveness and healing facilitated by Mara accompanied the screening.

The four stories portray different aspects of forgiveness after suffering a loss—loss of innocence, trust, loved ones or liberty—and tell about how people moved on with their lives instead of staying locked in anger. This thought provoking documentary is designed to foster discussion in the hope of encouraging more options for conflict resolution.

The Omen is a collection of symbols, interpretations, dreams, and premonitions. The collection of prints, drawings, sculptures, paintings, and themes being presented are all interconnected, and work symbiotically as a key. The gallery show represents a transformation over a span of three years, and animates the past, present, and imminent future of my experiences here in Ithaca, NY. The Omen are pathways and snapshots to my realizations and fears, all within the context of each medium, forever chained to the existence of our never-ending story.

Moving Box Studios are located at 330 East State Street, Ithaca.
