- View the Milky Way at 10 million light years from the
Earth. Then move through space towards the Earth in successive orders of
magnitude until you reach a tall oak tree just outside the buildings of the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Tallahassee, Florida. After that, begin to move from the actual size of a leaf into a microscopic world that reveals leaf cell walls, the cell nucleus, chromatin, DNA and finally, into the subatomic
universe of electrons and protons. - ArtCentric

Their mission is to nurture artistic expression and to serve the creative life

- A community project Suz coordinated in 1999
with cobb builder/ sculptor Kiko Denzer. Over 12,000 walked the
three-dimensional “Man in the Maze” labyrinth at the da Vinci Days festival. The festival opened with a choral performanced of “The Labyrinth”, co-written by Suz for the event, and participants added mud sculptures on the labyrinth itself as the weekend progressed. It was the perfect blend of art, science, and ancient
technology.
