Community Project

A renewed consciousness around the materiality of our contemporary society. This is something that people might consider abstractly but this workshop will allow participants to really get into it materially in a “hands-on” way. I think that this has to have the power to be very affecting. Visiting a garbage dump is much different than thinking about it. And physically making something with waste or refuse is very powerful.
Contemplate the question, what role does art have in renewing consciousness? If we can all agree intellectually that “recycling is good” or “there is too much trash” is there a way that art can be useful in a spiritual, symbolic or practical way?
