Painting Brigid – summer of 2023

During the summer of 2023 I was one of the Project Managers in a Community Art Project called Horizont – building bridges thru art in the border town of Haparanda/Tornio in Sweden/Finland. The project took place in demolition designated buildings where over 20 professional artists and several art students painted, installed sculptures and video art, and held workshops for the public.

I painted the walls of a flat with the image of Brigid, the Goddess of art, poetry and healing, with a connecting rose opposite her face. It was a really rewarding experience to be able to paint on a bigger surface and to see the image evolving each day.
