A star is born

Today I got the first star-wound in place at the end of the container.  This is symbolically the birth of the project; the star represents the entry and exit point into the container, into the body,into our life on this planet. At this juncture, I realize that many of you may not be familiar with the artistic concept for the project, so as the design evolves, day by day, I will present the relevant ideas.

"Artbitat," the theme of the festival, signifies "art-as-home".  A quote from the beginning of my proposal explains: "Although we most often think of home as a place, fundamentally, our physical and spiritual home is our body.  We are born into this world in a naked and vulnerable container with an interior innocence of pure light.  Every person’s home is the same at the core.  However, with the progression of time, the container is forced to evolve."  Stay tuned for the evolution that will take place over the coming days......

And, by the way, we are having fun too!  Mmmm......authentic bubble tea.......
