This quilt project grew out of my belief that everyone of us is an artist and everyone is a storyteller.
I believe that to see this come to fruition, I must be provided the participants with the opportunity to
express ourselves, whether it be orally or visually. Providing a visual opportunity for individual expression,
I asked the participants to produce a circle drawing (mandala or sacred circle).
Breath deeply, then produce a mark, then respond to that mark.
Continue breathing deeply and responding to each mark you make on the page.
Using a white pencil, individuals were able to draw forth an illuminated expression of that moment in time.
The white is our spirit energy of the moment.
Each line depicts the uniqueness of that individual at that moment.
Using a white pen on black paper enhances the illuminating quality of our spirit and the significant of each moment.
Each moment is beautiful.
A light called forth from the darkness.
Life.
