the kids and I had an amazing day painting and thinking about words that we can't live without. They used basic words like love and family and friends and they picked them not based on the words themselves, but on the need that these words represent...sentimental words.
The colors that the kids chose were all so different. and also very telling of their individuality. And the way in which the kids work is also very indicative of who they are. Looking at these pieces as a whole is best because they seem to fit together, like a mural. images of young people floating in space with the basic words of Need around them....these kids are so fortunate because they all get their needs met; unlike many children floating around this world....
I would love this mural hung somewhere in our city, so that all kids could look at it, relate to it;
and understand its primitive and important message.....
Excellent display of the creative 'machine' developing, nurtured (fueled), not shutting down, and it's momentum seemingly not hindered or intercepted by unnecessary outer element.
