#100MoreDays: Day 7

(SOME OF) WHAT I CONSUMED TODAY:

LINK ONE
LINK TWO 
LINK THREE

John and I went to the Alemany Farmers Market today, and it was an array of color and smells. I brought it all home and started whipping up some food for a family gathering tomorrow. As I chopped I noticed texture, and I had to snap some pictures. This is as much a form of my art as drawing, poetry, or social practice. 

Speaking of social practice...

Tonight, Celi Tamayo-Lee and I with help from Charmaine Schuford and Marissa Bergmann facilitated an iteration of #PrayersAbove, a creative and civic inquiry, for Anima, a new show by Miss TANQ and Jyun Jyun. We asked audience members the questions:

• What moves you?
• What animates you? 
• What gives you life?

Answers were written with black Sharpie on either gold or silver reflective squares. These squares were then hung from constructed bamboo trees that flanked the stage for Anima. The prayer trees grounded the performance in the movement, animation, and life of the audience.
