What keeps your firelight burning?
This is the light that guides you through dark days. This is the fire that warms you in the cold. This firelight draws community to huddle in hope.
When the pandemic began the world shifted for so many of us overnight. Artists lost their venues and exhibition spaces. Studios shut down.
The questions were about immediate survival. Short term strategies. How to pivot for the next few months?
We weren’t thinking about the long haul. We weren’t considering the spiritual tools we would need to last through a cold dark winter in this new reality.
Firelight is this year’s theme at Bleeding Heart.
We’re looking for embers of hope in our community. We’re featuring artists who have found a way to keep the firelight burning in these times of anxiety and isolation.
We’re finding new ways to huddle together around the heat and light.
We hope you will join us around the firelight.
