Reflective Resonance, Open Community Weaving Installation:
Created in celebration of the seasonal return of light and color to our environment. This urban nature loom is an invitation to weave with natural materials and the discards found in our urban green spaces. Over the process of 3 months the community lovingly wove intentions and wishes to cultivate and bring forth into its warp.
The Reflective Loom is currently in residence at Heavens Gate Garden, Bed-Stuy. Squash and other seasonal overtakings are finding their way into the weft integrating intentions within this increasingly natural structure.
