Las Vegas

Hanging by a Thread

To many, the very existence of humanity, figuratively and literally, is hanging by a thread. From the nightly news, the existential threats include our democracy, our health, our ability to live on our planet.

 

Artists from all disciplines can creatively make the passionate plea to change the story and change the culture to save our earth and humanity. We strive to collaborate and to create a visceral and emotional experience that inspires the necessary adaptations in human behavior and industry to save our future.

They Reap, While We Sew

A Commune-Knit-y participation project where crafters and artists of all backgrounds are invited to participate in a mass Sew-in, from June 9-November elections, to help heal our democracy, by creating small works that can be exhibitredd on-line, in reality, published, etc. The idea is to reflect upon the Troicateuse, or French workers who knitted at the base of the guillotine while heads were chopped off in the regime change that was the French revolution. We will knit, crochet, embroider, applique, etc. as the January 6 Insuurectionist hearings are televised and broadcast. "They Reap, While We Sew" is a means to encourage participation in the democratic process, by voting in November. It celebrates free speech and civil exchanges through art.
