Commune-ique
Commune-ique explores what community means, how we represent ourselves and interact with each other. Made from hand-felted wool in collaboration with students from Roosevelt University, the School of the Art Institute, ASU and clients of Lincoln Park Community Shelter as well as other community participants, the portable structure was installed at various parks, green spaces and vacant areas throughout Chicago during the summer of 2010. This project was also highlighted as a part of Studio Chicago, an ongoing series sponsored by the Department of Cultural Affairs, Museum of Contemporary Art, Hyde Park Art Center, Three Walls and others.
Some of the dates and locations of 2010 were:
June 23rd near the Field Museum in Grant Park
June 27 in the Tri-Taylor neighborhood
July 7th in Humboldt Park
July 14th in Jackson Park
July 30 in Lincoln Park
