These are photos from an invitational exhibition, Traveling Tales, at the Aratoi Museum in New Zealand, that was organized by Camila Marambio. Camila was the associate curator of prayingproject at exit art where I performed my Bead Meditation.
She is in New Zealand for a three month residency, and has plans to send the exhibition to San Francisco next.
My piece is in the 2nd collage, in the upper left hand corner, and is shown with the paper bag in which it was wrapped. Traveling Tales was an attempt to create a connection from around the globe via art postcards which documented time and place in whatever manner the artist conceptualized it. The piece I submitted is an extension of both Bead Meditation and String Theory; made from the parquet wooden flooring torn up after a flood and the tarred paper backing that I have been working with for the last two years.
Art postcards are a great way to flex creative muscle. They can be fun and fast. I just picked up a pack of watercolor postcards from Pearl Paint. And submitted one for a fund raiser at A.I.R. around the same time I sent the one shown to Camila. On the back of both is written: worship the ground you walk on.
