The portal between the hermit and the wheel of fortune.
Cycles of birth, death and rebirth. A life is lived singularly, a solitary presence within one embodiment. No two lives are the same yet the experience of being human is universal.
Poem
Helen Beynon
Traverse the cyclical experience of time through the minutia of stitches and breath as they knit into the broader experience.
Tapestry
Erica Otto
A labour of dedication and patience, the tapestry represents both the long hours spent in quiet contemplation to create it and the patterns and cycles present through regenerations. Gifts and challenges are repeatedly woven through family lines in legacies of love and harm. As time marches forward the lives of future generations benefit from the accumulated wisdom of those who have come before. Colour represents freedom and coherence as the inherited gift.
Interactive Piece: Community loom
Communities are tapestries woven from threads of support; they represent the bonds of friendship, family, and connections.
Over, under, over, under, repeated, thread by thread.
The finished product will be the result of those who have contributed to our process, a work of art completed by the community.
