"How Far From Home Are We?" An Illustrated Radio Journey

by Anna Keleher, Claire Coté and Rebecca Beinart

Making its debut in the United States, this exhibition is the collaborative outcome of a voyage in a small van from Totnes England to Helsinki Finland via the Baltic States and back through Scandinavia, across 16 borders, over 5,700 kilometers and all in seventeen days. On-site recordings and creative reflection are woven together to provide illuminating glimpses of a journey by land and sea. Collaborative pen and ink drawings created over bumpy roads and by the light of headlamps offer illustrated glimpses. Whittled tally-sticks provide a sculptural “account” of the expedition. Come and experience this intimate multi-sensory journey and join the collaboration through listening, smelling and drawing!

Synergy: La Onda de La Palabra

ArtStreet, a program of Albuquerque Health Care for the Homeless, is a community-based project and collective open studio space where art is used as the connection for community-building for those without and those with homes. This installation is part of a National Endowment for the Arts funded project that brought together artists and writers from the Harwood Art Center and The National Hispanic Cultural Center in order to enhance access to the arts and to sustain artistic excellence for ArtStreet's open studio artists.
