This is a particularly meaningful exhibition for me.

My 9 year old son will also be featured in this exhibition as one of my collaborators 🥹 Thank you to Melissa Fandos and Erika Mei Chua Holum for your caring curation @lookingcommathinking @erikameichua. I’m beyond excited to learn from the incredible artists in this exhibition.

As Rise St. James founder Sharon Lavigne says, “To love a community is to find ways to heal the community.” And y’all, there are so many ways 🌱

“Our materials library is a collective resource in the Kansas City studio,” shared Katie Dunn, VP and Senior Interior Designer.

“Having an archive of tactile elements at our fingertips enables teams to bring a project's identity to life, providing a clear ‘why’ behind every decision made throughout the design process.

Each material application is curated with an authentic, honest approach that supports the design vision. Our library allows for flexibility to experiment freely with color studies, mockups, scale, and textures in ways that reveal beautiful product interactions.

That’s the kind of difference that users can feel when they enter a space.”

“It expanded my systems understanding to see – in a very embodied way – that all things and beings are just expressions of decisions, relationships, and forces aggregated over time.”
Casey Tang, Embodying an Ecological Framework

In other words, this is a gratitude post for all the relationships that buoyed me during the busiest spring of my life. I am so, so grateful and need to brag on these lovely humans so their care work does not go unseen:

Sharing with you all this collaborative exhibit, envisioned in partnership with @heatherbirdharris , that premiered at the Festival of Faiths in Louisville in November:

******

"Entanglements" was a multimedia and multi-sensory exhibit that explored the shifting edges of climate crisis as both sites of grief and loss, as well as fertile spaces of imagination and interconnection. Through film, visual art, and the written word, the exhibit--held in the Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts as part of the Festival of Faith's 2025 theme of Sacred Belonging--invited the community to participate in practices of co-creation and envisioning possibilities.

Participants were invited to write on strips of birch bark using oak gall ink, in response to prompts about home, place, and belonging, and to then place their repsonses on a mobile, after watching three films (you can read a bit about each of these beautiful films in the photos above and follow the artists tagged there to learn more!):

"HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL," a collaboration between RISE St James, Heather Bird Harris, choreographer Monica Ordóñez, Melange Dance Company, Delechaise Ensemble, and videogrpaher Brian Tarnowski

"A LAKE STORY," by Melissa McGill, in collaboration with Toronto Ink Company, The Bentway, Duke Redbird, Andrew Williamson, and Mitchell Akiyama

"A SOFT FIGURE SHROUDED IN A GARDEN," by Cristina Molina

*******

This was the first installment of a project that @heatherbirdharris and I have been working on that asks: as we navigate the shifting edges of lands and waters in a world gripped by climate crisis, what is the work of inhabiting uncertainty; making, unmaking, and accepting change; and embodying communal and ecological practices of care, justice, and healing.

THANK YOU to the folks who worked with us to make this possible-- @melissamcgillstudio @cm0lina @risestjames --, to @festoffaiths for supporting and hosting the exhibit, to our many supporters along the way, especially the members of @thepennprogramvt and musician and storyteller @bensollee , and to everyone who wrote on bark and created the mobile. And a huge thank you to @heatherbirdharris for this creative partnership!!
