Fêlures & Lumières

in art •  5 years ago  (edited)

Another busy stretch but i think it's going to bring sweet fruit. I just curated a show with my group Dreams & Divinities for the 2019 Chance for Happiness fundraiser. A Chance for Happiness creates awareness, support and solution around the issue of suicide.

The Show is called Fêlures et Lumières - That's how the light gets in...

As the 13th century Persian mystic, Rumi said:
“The wound is where the light gets in.”

These cracks and light are represented by thirty-one international artists from the shadowy drawings of film director-artist Marc Caro (City of Lost Children, Delicatessen ...)

to the joyful three-meter-tall kinetic metal butterfly of artist Patrice Hubert.

Styles are eclectic but the message is unified: Love will guide and heal us.
