GET HUBBIED

As you may have already heard, Bettina's work is on view now in Santa Barbara as part of the Home Show Revisited, an exhibition put on by the Contemporary Arts Forum. The show partners homeowners with artists who are presented with the challenge of making a site-specific work. Bettina and I made numerous trips to SB during the time spent preparing for the show and given our friendly nature got to know Doug and Marian McKenzie (whose house Bettina's work is residing at now) quite well. We were struck by the freshness of their marriage and their life in general. There never seems to be a dull moment at the McKenzie house, which we tried to capture in this short video interview that explores their thoughts on marriage.
