a little more “love is the answer”, part 3

Posted on October 15, 2018October 15, 2018 by arlee

Love is Respect, and you can hold that in your hands, and take it out into the world.

These have to be stitched to the pennant, and a bit of text completed above the moon, and then i can put the back and front together.

The world is an ecoprint with my favourite local plant, red osier, dipped in indigo. The hands were cut from a rust and brazilwood piece done during one of my residencies at ACAD. I like too how the heart current abstraction also looks a bit like a tree, growing, protecting, strengthening the world.

I will however, resist saying “I am Groot” 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
