Convergence:
To reach the same point coming from different directions
To come together from different directions
To come together and unite in a common interest or focus
Creating - Connected - Communities
· Colours · Creative Choices (mindfulness) · Circles · Cycles · Connections · Communities · Celebration
Community connections are valuable and fragile - when converged there is strength and resilience.
Convergence seeks to capture and
depict the nuances of community
Lisa Rudd will work with community members to create
fragile clay art works that will be brought together in a collage that reflects
and celebrates the strengths of a united community. This collage will form a transportable mural
that captures a moment of Community Blitz history: http://www.communityblitz.org.au/ The portable nature of the artwork will make
it uncomplicated to display across various community locations and it is the
aim to feature the art work at Community Blitz’s 5th Birthday
celebration event in 2016.
Convergence was launched at Brighton
Show 2015, in February 2016 Community Blitz Governance Group members
contributed to the work; in February
2016 further community participants, of all ages, added to the mural. March will see the long
process of Raku kiln firing all the many elements of the community artwork
ready for exhibition in May 2016.
