Kindness, #24

" The Light of Human Kindness is an interactive mural in RVA that will explore
the relationship of light & darkness and what can happen when art, technology
& kindness come together to illuminate the power of human connection. "

 

"The project begins with our simple human stories."

" Once the stories are collected & written on the wall at a community event,
Richmond artist Hamilton Glass will paint the mural over the very stories
that hold our shared humanity & goodness. "

" The 1,000 (LED light bulbs) installed directly on an 80 foot wall in Cary Street will then light up one-by-one in real time as people from Richmond & around the world complete acts of kindness inspired by the mural art or their own experience of needing light during a dark time."

 

"The mural will also invite folks to experience the power of human connection by interacting with the wall itself using conductive properties and other cutting edge technology. The collective energy of one hand touching the wall while linked with a physical human connection to others will also power the lights. "
