Mink says this body of work is the culmination of her thinking about
connections between painting and science.</font>
<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">“Ten years ago I founded
an annual winter festival which features
performers in both the arts and sciences, so thinking about creative
synergies is often on my mind. Painting has always been a part of my
life, but this past year I tried an experiment: framing my work with
concepts in physics and math."<br>

Gallery, 120 W. State Street
