So we drove to the Headlands for the slightly fresher, cooler, air, and we found these texts inside a tunnel. The poster was likely referencing Susan Sontag’s The impulse to create begins often terribly and fearfully in a tunnel of silence, from her essay The Aesthetics of Silence. The transformation of silence into language and action is an essay from Audre Lorde’s book Sister Outsider on the Vulnerability of Visibility and Our Responsibility, to Ourselves and Others, to Break Our Silences. The second selection of posted texts were weathered and torn pieces of Paulo Freire’s Pedagogy of the Oppressed.

"Why art? Because artists are frequently compelled to manage economic precariousness using skills and strategies that lead to imaginative life-preserving solutions which can ultimately play a central role in rebuilding the post-pandemic educational system." #SociallyEngagedArt #HigherEd https://hyperallergic.com//reimagining-higher-education-t/

It doesn’t look like regional municipalities are up to the challenge, which is the national strategy.

Moving forward with our hands in the air!

Whoa! Just look at art collection.
