Celebrating Form and Spirit
Women explored their creativity together.
Banners, each life sized, celebrate gorgeous women, myriad experiences all created in community. Simple to start, the process involves layers of fabric old and new, buttons and beads, tassels, photos and now, keys. We shared materials and stories about that interview dress, favorite soft pajamas and monogrammed shirts as we cut, arranged and glued.
Whether working together on a shared banner to honor another or collaging one’s own story, it’s a thoughtful process- selecting, arranging, reflecting and affixing. For some it’s therapeutic for others revealing; art is empowering as we celebrate our form and spirit. A special thanks to Sheila Richards and her inspirational workshop at the Michigan Women's Festival.
