Call for Artistic Assistance: The Love Project

Love. It's a mystery. It's a many-splendoured thing. It can give your life 
meaning. It can suck the meaning from your life. It is the ultimate topic 
for an art project. Yes, you read that last part right. Like so many 
artists before me, I am tackling the subject of love for a 
sculpture/installation project. You are cordially invited to participate.

What to do:

Write down the name of an individual that you have been/are in love with 
on a piece of paper. It can be the name of your beloved life partner, or 
the person that sat in front of you in ninth grade English, or the one 
that got away, or the one you worshipped from afar but were too afraid to 
talk to, or anyone else with whom you've felt that mysterious connection. 
I don't need an explanation. All I want is a name. I leave the phrase "in 
love" open to your interpretation.

Where to send it:

The Love Project
5 East 2nd Street
Brooklyn, NY 11218

Although handwritten submissions are preferred, anyone particularly 
concerned with anonymity or unwilling to part with $.39 may submit a name 
via email to theloveproject@gmail.com. Feel free to submit more than one 
name, and please, PLEASE forward this call for assistance to anyone who 
may be interested in this project.

The Inspiration:

This piece is being produced as a part of Wonder Women: Exploration of the 
Subconscious Superhero at _gaia, an environment for creative process in 
Hoboken, NJ. You can learn more about _gaia at www.gaiastudio.org. 
Exhibition details to follow.

The Fine Print:

Your submission will never be connected with your name, address, or any 
identifying characteristics. By participating in The Love Project, you are 
granting the artist the right to display your submission in a gallery 
setting. All submissions will become the property of the artist. The 
artist reserves the right to exclude certain submissions from the final 
project.

Many thanks!
