This is a collaborative project with a class of underprivileged teen aged girls. We developed the story and animation together around an eaten apple and the seeds that remained.

 

In the story the apple is eaten, the two seeds run from the scene and one cries about loosing its home while the other is comforting. They are thrown in the trash where they find a new home, a rotten apple. Then they feel an earthquake and are tossed through the air onto the soil.

This was an encore at the Teatru Muzical in Galati, Romania. The piece is the 3rd movement, Andante, of the 2nd Sonata for Violin Solo by Johann Sebastian Bach. The video includes a few of the cobblestone streets we walk.

I sat down in an empty parking lot. Three little boys, two were 4 and the other 8, approached me as I wrote in my journal and asked what I was writting. I evaded the question, handed them colored pencils and a 4x8 inch piece of paper to draw on together. I happened to had a good recording device with me and I hit record as it sat in my open bag away from their view. I later recorded the guitar track to go with the original voices of the boys.

This is a trial run of a project with marginalized kids doodling in sand. There images appear and dissapear. I hope to make a longer smoother version as I work with these young kids more. Where we live kids are told they have no talent early on. This is a very non threatening way for them to play with lines and shapes.

This was a project completed with at risk kids at the 'Valley Center' in the lower Danube Region of Romania. The idea was to allow the character and personhood of these kids to be seen more than there possible labels.

Here are childhood memories I have of my brother Isaac and sister Johanna. I did quick drawings and then had my three year old help write and narrate the words. We finished it for Christmas 2006 for all the children of Isaac and Johanna.
