Title: Seeds of Love (collaboration with Heerup Museum) @ Rødovre Culture Night
Medium: Installation/ Participative
Year: 2015
I did a few workshops with school kids and the public to carve the word ‘love’ in different languages from used papers and then plant them in the grass during the Culture Night festival in Rødovre, Denmark.
The act of planting the words in the grass was inspired by my childhood memories growing up near a rice field in Kelantan Malaysia.
The intension of this art work is to encourage love to grow. I got the idea from rice farmers I had seen earlier on in my life. Seeds of Love was installed during a festival in Rødovre Kommune in 2005
.
Together with school children from the commune I created this art project by using bbq-sticks and paper and planted these seeds of love. In order to make the message very direct I included words and text in this work
This work was ‘repeated’ in 2015 together with Heerup Museum with a sligthly different theme to it. Here we did some workshops with the public and some school children. They all carved the word ‘love’ in different languages on peices of paper and planted them
