IMAGINE THE FUTURE - AMSTERDAM
Project (synopsis) Mushroom Nature Spirit Faerie Ring Portals This installation consists of stoneware and raku fired ceramics arranged in a circle of approximately 3m radius, as a large ‘faerie ring’ in which everyday Amsterdammers of all ages will be invited to share a song, story, or piece of music from their respective cultures. The main intention is to bring people together in community to celebrate the cultural diversity of our city within the ‘sacred space’ of the faerie ring. Inspired by Celtic stories and tradition, the megalithic stone circles of our ancient world and a nod to the role of mycelia in upholding our ecosystems, the Faerie Ring will form a portal for enchantment, creativity and imagination. This is my wish for a living, breathing, healthy and unified city of the future.
