In Geographies:
Mapping Beauty, Mapping Love 2004,
2005, 2006 we used beauty as our guiding principal.
We asked participants to consider their place in our world community.
Where were
you born? Where do you call home? Where do you live now? Where
must you visit or re-visit before you die? How far back does your
geography remember? What is your family’s point of origin,
your grandparents? Great grandparents? In Geographies: Mapping
Beauty, Mapping Love 2005 we mapped participants through time
and space.
* Fortune
tellers gave celebrants guidance in plotting a course through
the new year of 2006.
* People designed and cut out silhouette shapes and moved them
like liquid stories of giant projections dancing on the walls
and also made their shadow characters dance over articles of white
clothing, used as backdrops.
*Eager folks put on party hats made from maps of the world and
while looking in a mirror, sketched their new years face and wrote
a resolution on their postcard... to receive them six months later
as a reminder.
Come and join us next year to ring in the new year in a creative
way.
