🔔 Boat Ride to Ring the Bell for Peace
Today, September 13, 2026, we joined Taiwanese-American artist Lin Shih-Pao for a special boat ride in Staten Island, New York, to ring the Bell of Peace.
We stop : Governors Island, Lincoln Center, United Nation, and Statue of Liberty and knock the bell.
Part of his project “Let the Bell of Peace Ring from Taiwan,” the bell carries the image of a sunflower for Ukraine and a dove for peace.

May the sound of the bell travel across the water, carrying our shared hope for peace. 🔔🕊️🌻

A meaningful day on the water — Ringing the Bell of Peace for Ukraine. 🔔🕊️
Despite the morning rain and flood warnings, we had a successful boat ride from Staten Island, gathering together to ring the Peace Bell on the water.
Thank you to artist Shih-Pao Lin for creating and organizing this special experience, bringing artists, friends, and community together to send a message of peace, hope, and solidarity across New York Harbor.
May the sound of the bell travel far beyond the water — ringing for peace. 🌊🔔🕊️

To Be or Not To Be—This Know No Question
A performance by Ricardo Woo, today at TAAC House 17, Governors Island.

Dressed as a shaman, Ricardo extended the navel-like cord from his work beyond the walls of House 17, reaching outside and drawing people into the space.

The performance became a meditation on life’s fundamental questions—from birth to death, and the destiny we cannot escape. The cord suggested connection, origin, and the invisible ties that bind us to one another and to the course of life.

A powerful journey between birth, existence, and mortality. Hashtag and tag.
