Then I got to thinking one day a few weeks ago about getting back to the project. Te more I thought of it the more it became clear that carrying on a project that has been a year in hiatus was not the route I wanted to take. Then I thought about what I could turn the project into. Then I remembered seeing a group on Facebook that was specifically about the abandonment of art in random places and then I stared to make a few pieces of art in small cards with a plan to focus my area of art drops to a single place, Confederation Park in Burnaby.
We come spinning out of nothingness, scattering stars like dust. - Rumi Left to be found on a park bench by the children's water park and the track at Confederation Park in Burnaby BC. |
I often find that I find the right words to help when the times are tough; right when I need them. Sometimes a small turn of phrase or quotation comes right out of nowhere and hits the nail right on the head. My hope is that the art I abandon with the quotes I've chosen to illustrate will do the same for the people who find them.
All A Bloom. Left to be found on the first picnic table to the left from the sidewalk behind McGill Library entering onto the field. |
These are the first in many more drops to come. The goal being to set one down on each bench and picnic table in the park.
