The action of drawing brings new ideas, forges connections. To take a piece of chalk and draw designs on the cement is to make the decision to live in the moment, to be open and available to the contingencies of the terrain, weather and people around us.
From traditional and geometric design, with what she can get her hands on from the chosen site (a garbage lid for drawing circles, a string to guide her marks, etc.) Iona constructs different colored mosaics all the while interacting with residents of Habitations de Mentana. To follow the evolution of this project and to know the dates Iona will be present please consult the Blog at traces.dare-dare.org as well as DARE-DARE’s web site.
