Erzulie
Hey all --
I've been reading your posts but haven't had much of a chance to respond, most of my attention has been on mosaics.
Here's one of Erzulie... A veve of the Goddess of Love... trying to conjure a reconciliation between love and water. One of Agwe soon, when I have it grouted.
I just started my summer theater camp. I teach 70 kids aged 7-14 theatre and we stage a full production over five weeks. I'll be working and contributing but I may not be able to communicate as regularly as I like.
Love the chatter and pix!

Lisa, this is beautiful! I can't wait to see how the installation comes together!
Gorgeous! Lisa--do you want pics and links sent to you as well, or more material things that could be made into mosaics?

Love this! I meant to comment on this earlier (and I'm sure others have already made the connection), but I like that the gods and goddesses that you're using also tie into the characters from _Once on this Island_ which is the musical produced by After the Storm Foundation (one of the original links posted by Kathleen). I'm guessing the musical theatre folks might have made this connection as well? Just a thought!
Thanks, turgs. Glad you like Erzulie. Yes, I was inspired by my previous research while working on Once on This Island, glad you made that connection! Seems quite appropriate for our work here.
Megs, please do send me links and bring anything physical to NOLA for the installation.
Wow!
This mosaic is Amazing! And it is terrific to know that the research we've been doing is influencing your work. Really looking forward to seeing all this come together!
