opening at Central UMC, Stockton




Last night we opened unFound with a crowd of about thirty people. A reading sparked many interesting conversations, and it was fascinating to watch people walk through our installation as they might walk a labyrinth.

Over the many months that we constructed this piece, and more than the year that we have been discussing it, there were many many times that I felt that this would never be real. But, as we sweated through hundred degree Central Valley heat, laying out shoes, ordering words and hanging fabric, the magnitude of seeing a creative vision through hit me. We had something to say, we experienced something that we thought spoke to the human condition, and we expressed it.

Sunday we will return to Stockton to give workshops, and the exhibition will continue to hang at Central UMC through next weekend.
