calling ALL heARTists

my mind is fixed these days on physics and the word of the Buddha

among other things

“Impermanent are all created things;

Strive on with awareness”

with that, i am preparing for my next live art collaboration

Chinatown Remixed would be great event perhaps!)

it starts with this call to all artists, bold and timid alike

to submit to me a small original work on paper

a created thing

i will post them here as i am doing with “proton moving from A to B by all possible paths” (for example)

proton from a to b

collected for the big day

expected in may

i will ask participants to choose a work, or make a work

and take scissors to it

snip snip

impermanence

impermanence

from there i will have pieces to make a collage

a new creation

(which we can also cut up!)

so if you are an artist (of any sort) fascinated by creation send me a message and i will send you the mailing address

deadline for receipt of work: May 1st, 2013

collaboartive@gmail.com

what is your feeling on the state of humanity?

gold = positive and hopeful

teal = neutral and things are as they are

black = concerned and negative

as expected, had a golden time collaborating with the people of ottawa

the other is black until more of our energy is spent this way

nature nocturne

tonight is the night

party at the dinosaur museum!!!

another collaboration in the works

nocturne

Museum of Nature

january twenty-fifth 8pm – midnight

the intention of this project is to allow the night shape a collaborative inter-active piece in celebration of connectedness, both within ourselves and with those among us.

the museum of nature is an ideal setting to have individuals consider the state of human nature and contribute their creative energy to a painting made up of three different colours of thumbprint. a large canvas is prepared with twenty-three strips of fine paper. attendees will be encouraged to choose one of three colours: gold, teal, or black to make their mark. the colours are attached to the following sentiments; gold for a positive hopeful view, teal for a neutral laissez-faire attitude, and black for those with less hope. the image will reveal a temperature of sorts. the mood of the group at the event.

the transfer of the collective creativity energy should be interesting at least, beautiful at best.

hope to see you there
