TRUE NATURE is a month-long art installation and series of community events exploring the true nature of all phenomena: that which is always changing, impermanent and ‘empty’ of a separate self.
Featuring an elaborate arrangement of flowers created by local floral designer Stilken Og Strom, guests will be encouraged to visit the installation on multiple occasions to deeply observe and draw the plants as they actively change and decay.
Artist Elaine Su-Hui will host a series of 4 guided drawing sessions throughout the opening week of the project. These drawing meditations will be less about artistry and more about the contemplative process of observing our experience of change, moment by moment.
All are welcome and no previous art or meditation experience is necessary. This project is offered by dana ('free will giving').
Our deepest thanks to the generosity of curator Heather Jones and Prosjektrom Normanns for hosting and funding this project, and to our collaborative partner Stilken Og Strom.
