VISIONARY is an online interview project that profiles individuals who are using culture to urgently, innovatively and daringly re-imagine how we live this existence. Through engaging each artist’s greatest visions and deepest fears it seeks to sustain, document, share and ultimately transform how we live and feel about community as individuals internationally. OFFERING is a section of VISIONARY that profiles art that is shared outside traditional gallery and museum settings.  It seeks to document exciting and innovative work that artists and others have decided to share within free mass culture locations including television, internet and public street spaces. VISIONARY is a REBORN project.

Dear Friends, I am honored to present to you  this issue of VISIONARY WWW.REBORNHOME.COM entitled The Master’s House. This work highlights the ways these men, who are artists are using art to re-imagine the cultural fabric of the United States.  Honoring an essay by Audre Lorde entitled “The Master's Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master's House.” All of these interviews convey the spirit of creating spaces that incorporate the multiplicity of voices that make up our communities and country. REBORN  presents  Franck de la Mercedes, Kevin Maynor, Lex Leonard and a KICKMAG profile of Brother Ali.  This is our first time collaborating with KICKMAG to produce VISIONARY MUSIC a section of VISIONARY that will deal with musical artists whose work deals with community and we are excited! It is not anything new at all that artists serve the needs of the people. Artists are the people, wedded to a life of translating ideas, movements and innovations into material form. Thank you in advance for taking time to read the interviews at WWW.REBORNHOME.COM and sharing them with friends.  Through a call and response process there is something amazingly possible at store for all of us.  Please feel free to send any comments and share to reborn@rebornhome.com. Love is real, Noelle Lorraine Williams
