Connie Noyes' dream has become reality! Last night was the grand launch party at her studio in Chicago for the website for her "IN the PINK: 1,000,000 people art project". As she decribes the site, the "interactive platform will allow 1,000,000 people from around the globe to post projects they are passionate about, creative projects with the potential to change the world."
Nice, right?
But I very much like the art's description on the website.
As a global citizen in the 21st Century, what does it mean to be in good condition for our world, our communities or our selves? In the PINK: the 1,000,000 people art project is a multifaceted project designed for artists and collaborators from all disciplines to create, build and sustain a global community centered on creative process, interaction and dialog. The project draws attention and awareness to socio-cultural, historic, trans-national, economic, political, creative, generational, gender and spiritual issues based on cultural and/or personal connections to the color “PINK” or the phrase “IN THE PINK”.
We've come right back to that 1970's slogan, haven't we?
THINK global, ACT local.
I hope her work will inspire others to continue that line of thought.
Meanwhile, if I'm ever in the Chicago area, I'll certainly visit her exhibit.
