At-Home Art Challenge

The Bushwick Book Club Seattle and Washington State Poet Laureate Claudia Castro Luna invite you to share a window into your world.

The artwork in Cecilia Vicuña’s Saborami offers joy and whimsy alongside serious politics. Born in a time when Chile shut down and everything changed forever, Vicuña’s light persisted. The Bushwick Book Club Seattle wants to know: how are you seeing the world today? With the country shutting down and everything changing forever, how are you experiencing joy? If you kept a daily journal of magic conveyed through household aesthetics, how would it look? Bushwick invites you to share an image, collage, drawing, or musing built from everyday items. Our spontaneity and spirit persist.

“the absolute joy of an instant can’t be perpetuated”
“the concern for Here and Now cannot be expressed in a lasting piece because then it would be a concern for the Here and Now and A Little Bit later”
“art should be done by everyone”
-Cecilia Vicuña

El arte y poemas del libro Saborami de la chilena Cecilia Vicuña nos ofrece política con una dósis de humor. Vicuña escribió el libro como un diario como reacción a los eventos de 1973 que depusieron el govierno de Salvador Allende y que cambiaron la historia de Chile para siempre. Nosotros estamos viviendo un tiempo que también cambiara nuestra historia para siempre. El Club de Libros de Bushwick quiere invitarlos a ser parte de un proyecto de arte comunitario. Compartan una imagen, un dibujo, pensamiento o dicho que capture este momento. Cómo se expresa su bienestar dentro de estos momentos? Si tuvieran que capturar lo cotidiano con una sola imagen, que imagen escogerian? Nuestra espontaneidad y espiritú persisten. Compartamos!

“el absolute gozo de ése instante no se perpetua”
“esta preocupación por el Aquí y Ahora no se expresa en una obra dura, porque entonces sería una preocupación por el Aquí y Ahora y un Poco Después”
“el arte debe ser hecho por todos”
