🎐Take a deep breath in the garden with me. Feel the wind carry what’s ready to go. Let what’s beautiful stay. This hand-dyed poetry banner bloomed in reds and pinks, first unfurled at the Los Angeles Arboretum in an exhibition of Papel Picado, poetry, women in nature in the Garden of Quiet Reflection. Most recently, it moved with the wind at Peters Valley School of Craft, reminding us: Culture, family, and creativity live here. They support us when we slow down and listen. They arrive when we breathe. A Deep Breath in the Garden is a Six Word Bloom, a poetic memoir form taught by writer and educator Olga Garcia Echeverría. Did the art remind you to enjoy a deep breath? Let’s take one together. With care, Karina Puente karinapuentearts #karinapuentearts #papelpicado #karinaspapelpicado #poetry #sixwordblooms
