"SOMA RISING" is 40 pages, hardcover/dustjacket, 10" x 8" landscape style book, October 2012. All text and artwork by Patricia Araujo. “SOMA Rising” explores architectural practice as both imagination and sometimes sad reality. But it ends on a hopeful note: accepting the inevitability of change, its rooftop views show us the city from a vantage point that in itself speaks to the possibility of growth and renewal." From the foreword by Jerome Tarshis, Art Critic.

“This series of paintings by Patricia Araujo is not a realistic depiction of any one Tomorrowland at any single point in time. It is, collectively, an artist’s fantasy, like a theme and variations in music, about the imaginative act involved in designing a representation of the future, seeing it built, seeing it get older…” (From the foreword by Jerome Tarshis, Art Critic).Hardcover, dustjacket, (40 pages).
