Hi Everyone,
Since our last report, much in the world has changed -- a global pandemic, months of sheltering in place, collective grief, another tragic death of a black man at the hands of police triggered a great social awakening. Covid-19 laid bare the truths we were all to busy to focus on. It highlighted the inequalities of race, gender, class, and age. It made us confront death and loss. We even witnessed what it looked like when our relentless exploitation of the planet was paused for a moment.
Now we cautiously re-enter a different world. This liminal time holds great uncertainty and opportunity for needed change. Through this period we continue to think, listen, and use the creative process as a way to focus on the existential questions we are facing.
And now - a brief project update. We are honored to have just received an ArtWorks Grant from the National Endowments for the Arts for the Heaven Through the Backdoor. During the last three months, we have been editing, building and shooting. Here are some images of us at working from home during San Francisco’s Shelter in Place March - June 2020.
Take care,
Anna
