"All I need is a hook, some notion of an interesting direction to explore and I begin. Air Guitar's hook was to give the wind an instrument to play." - artist Mike Roig
In awarding Best in Show, juror Hank Foreman observed, "Air Guitar engages the viewer not only through its visuals but through its obvious need and desire to be touched...indeed played. The craftspersonship is impeccable with superb construction and finish." Foreman is Director and Cheif Curator of the Turchin Center for the Visual Arts at Appalachian State University in Boone, North Carolina
