Embroidering with students at Middle schools outside Oslo, 3rd school





The third school I went to was small, only 20 students at each level. I embroidered with 9th and 10 th graders. One student wrote a poem in response:

In the fabrics of a lost Mexico
Workers come and go
Narrowed eyes, peering out from shadows
Follow their every move
When lost and missed
No one notices, No one takes action
Families left with tears
In our ignorant world
Like lost souls they wander
In forever darkness, searching for the light of
HOPE


In January I will visit the last school on this "tour".

In February Desconocida Unknown Ukjent is invited to the gallery at University for Creative Arts, Epsom, UK. The exhibition is curated by Lesley Millar, I will get back with more information about this later.

Good bye for now,

And THANKS ALL STUDENTS FOR A GREAT JOB AND COLLABORATION!
Lise
