The disks are artist’s conceptual response to the beautiful Suizenji Jojuen Garden, built by the feudal lord Hosokawa in the 17th century, landscaped in a circular pattern for strolling around a miniature Mt. Fuji. In Griffith’s "garden," with three pools, the articulation of the discrete elements within the field and the sense of the field as a whole emerge only by walking and looking, the same principles of time, space and motion in effect at Suizenji. Groeniger's work reflecting in.

Roberta Griffith, Professor Emerita of Art, Department of Art + Art History, Hartwick College, Oneonta, NY & Hawai'i artist.

Incorporating research, archaeology and world travel, Roberta Griffith blends 2-D imagery, including words, with 3-D forms in her installations to evoke associations of places and their cultural manifestations, human foibles, human mortality, the cyclical nature of life and death, and universal shortcomings, natural and man-made.

Scott Groeniger, associate professor of art at the Department of Art + Art History, University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa (UHM)
META [me-ta]
prefix
(self-referential) used to reference an idea about its own category — an X about an X

Rooted in lens-captured photography, video and traditional printmaking—specifically lithography and screen-printing, Scott Groeniger's work is filtered back though more contemporary techniques of digital imaging and experimentation. The result can be understood as printed images of images of prints, or X about X.
