White Silence II

Jugglers Art Space in Brunswick Street, Fortitude Valley have been trialing an artists event space called White Silence. I participated in White Silence II last Friday and was blown away by such a powerful concept. The premise being that in between the bustle and noise of our time, we are often forgetting to just stop, listen and be. Just create. Peter Breen, director of Jugglers has created a space whereby artists come to the Gallery all dressed in white and ready to collaboratively create art, without talking for 75 minutes. We were encouraged to collaborate on the works and react to eachother both physically and through notes. 

This sketch above, using rose conte pencil and ink felt pen illustrates the connection created through art of a group of strangers, artists and friends. 

A wicked idea, can't wait for number 3. If you're in brisbane and keen to join in, either actively or passively, visit the Jugglers website for contact details and how to register your interest.
