Weaving Our Future: Interlacing Our Manifestations with Artist Elizabeth Velazquez
Get your ticket today, and join us in creating a collective weaving. Weaving is an indigenous art form that consists of interlacing long strips of material. The act of weaving transforms many small individual pieces of material into larger, uniform works, such as textiles and baskets. Weaving becomes a metaphor for the possibilities of collective action.
We will collaboratively create a woven textile that records the actions of our hands and reflections on the past, present and future as we move through the day at the NYCoRE convening.
For this activity please bring your presence, creativity and willingness. The weaving process welcomes your thoughts, words, favorite quotes, intentions, affirmations, and manifestations. With our efforts we will weave the past into the present and future, collectively manifesting the resistance necessary for liberation.
Material Ask: If you have recycled fabrics for making strips (clean old clothing, linens, etc.); Yarn and/or long flexible material (can be upcycled packaging plastics) please bring them with you to donate for this collective weaving.
