The Bridge Miami and FETA invite you to participate in
If I only had a garden…
People, plants, and the opossum play.
An exploratory collaborative art and garden-making experience.
March 14-18, 2022
4-9 PM
The Bridge Miami: 4220 NW 7th Ave, Miami, FL 33127
Spring is in the air, and FETA has historically organized a festival with performances for live and virtual audiences. This year, however, we are fantasizing about a shared experience in which everybody participates.
We invite you to imagine a public garden with us—an outdoor place in which plants, arts and technologies grow together intertwined by collective dynamic imagination. Dream it. Make it. Together.
During the week of experimental outdoor art making and community building, we will meet 4-9PM and design a living prototype for the garden at the Bridge, focusing on the interaction between emergence, passing and sustainability through the lens of the plantological exploration.
Participatory activities, listening sessions, collaborative gardening, construction of structures, and tech-art making will be guided by the garden itself. Daily sharing sessions will begin at 8PM.
Join us. Participate. Learn. Play.
The week will be guided by the iconic Sonocybernetic creator Onyx Ashanti (MI), musical robot maker Troy Rogers (MN), projection master Daniel Benoit (MN), wired-less sonic technologist Alex Lough (NJ), urban community designer Hanah Davenport (NJ), the artphibian orchid whisperer Juraj Kojš (FL), experimental electronic music impresario Nicole Martinez (FL), Insta musicologist Nevena Stanic-Kovacevic (FL), tarot reader and the Life sage Betzaida Ferrer (FL), the linguistic architect Nadia Naami (FL), creative production guru Luisa Buitrago (FL), augmented reality film and video voyager Juan Carlos Zaldivar (FL), transcdisiplinary multi-modal story teller Dimitry Chamy (FL), the beauty-beyond-the-mainstream choreographer Pioneer Winter (FL) and the garden architecture luminary Maria Isabel Rodriguez (FL).
If you’d like, bring something to honor the garden such as a plant cutting or an article that would fit our outdoor setting.
Creator sign up for any of the following dates (4-9PM).
It is important that you are present for the whole duration of the session.
