Thought Feathers

’Yes, drawings are thought feathers, they are ideas that I seize in mid flight and put down on paper. All my thoughts are visual. But the subjects of my drawings are often not translated into sculpture until several years later. As a result, there are a lot of things that appear in drawings but are never explored further.'

[Louise Bourgeois]

Art On The Move moves onto an AutoShare Ford Transit

AutoShare has decided to collaborate with a unique Toronto art program ART ON THE MOVE. The program integrates public art and urban design by engaging professional artists and community members – kids, adults, and seniors – who collaborate to adorn vehicles with original artwork.

The design for AutoShare’s Ford Transit Connect was created by artist Susan Rowe Harrison, and 26 children of the Karen Kain School of the Arts Afternoon Art Club (Grades 4, 5 and 6). The program will officially launch June 15th, at the National Yacht Club and showcasing 5 original art-wrapped vehicles.
