Some of you may remember a photo of the event where long pieces of cloth, which were traditionally dyed, were hung over the river to dry. Well, the group was also at the Peace Festival to make a cloth dyed (or likely painted) with hand prints to hang at next year's event!
It seemed like everyone was having fun choosing a color and then deciding where they wanted to put their hand print. This is definitely what I would call hands-on art...messy but fun!
This is so lovely! Amazing how something as simple as hands could make such a great work. :)
ReplyDeleteThat is so pretty and colorful. What a great way to show that we can live side by side and hand in hand in peace.
ReplyDeleteooh, looks fun Kaori. ^0^
ReplyDeleteLovely patches of color...
ReplyDeleteFun!
ReplyDeletethank you for sharing this wonderful piece of hope very much.
ReplyDeleteカラフルでステキだね～！見事で斬新なアート！
ReplyDeleteこういうハンドプリント、もう幼稚園のとき以来やってない気がする～！
こうやって子供時代のように、大胆に、無邪気にアートを楽しむのって、大人にこそ必要なことなのかもね♪笑
You can't help but smile.
ReplyDeleteWhat color(s) did you choose?
ReplyDeleteI thought of some not-so-recent precedents, like here (clickable images).
Your bottom photo will make a nice notecard.
so what color did you choose ? Love the idea simple and efficient :)
ReplyDeleteThat is going to be a very beautiful and colourful banner for next year Kaori, let me guess...I bet you picked either orange or blue??
ReplyDeleteNice event and way to celebrate it. We're having International Peace Day soon here too.
ReplyDeleteImagine if the sky were many colors!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Tall Gary; that bottom image would make a lovely card. And the banner of colorful hands is fabulous.
