Get the Balance Right



You have found us, email excitat23@yahoo.com if you wish to contact us.

Many years ago, sitting on a rock outcropping in a forested ravine of s.Ont., this one had a vision. I thought the world had ended, It seemed as if there was an earthquake or a bomb going off, the ground was churning, the light was different, I leaped to avoid being churned up in the rocks. When my feet landed, the perspective on the rock outcropping this one had been sitting on had shifted and a large rock head and face was now apparent. I don't mean it kinda looked like a face, this WAS a giant stone face. The huge native face radiated a fatherly kindness. The rocks that were the mouth moved to talk and began grinding and speaking in a very deep grinding gravel-ly voice. The giant rock face said " Invent a game for the children" and the vision ended as suddenly as it had begun.


Stone balancing can be approached as the play of a child. Playing with the type of playful seriousness that happens when growth and awareness are occurring for one. Many haven't played this way since childhood. As a child I used to spend hours building sand castles at the beach. Stone balancing is just like that. Come play!


Come grow, play, you are the buddha!

Today can you see?




http://www.urbanex.org/index.html is the web address of the arts culture and social justice experiment we will be taking part in this june. Be sure to look for the stone balance circles in the downtown areas, thursday june 4th. Do say hi!

UrbanEx

UrbanEx is made up of three components: Excursions, Advocacy & Speaking/Mobilization.

Urban Excursions are an arts, culture and social justice experience. These are week long coordinated trips for teams who come from all over the world to the City of Toronto to be challenged to examine themselves and how they occur in the world and how that affects the world around them.


UrbanEx Advocacy networks agencies, corporations, communities and individuals together. As community advocates we create new opportunities to facilitate effecive social conflict resolution strategies.

UrbanEx conducts speaking and mobilization seminars, presentations and training exercises. We provide leadership to share knowledge, ideas and experience to see our entire community actively engaged with each other, resulting in effective change.(The above blurb was taken from urbanex.com basic literature.)



Gallery Arcturus

We will be standing stones up outside Gallery Arcturus this summer. Here is some info from them:

Gallery Arcturus is a not-for-profit contemporary art exhibition and art education centre located in downtown Toronto. It is funded and operated by The Foundation for the Study of Objective Art, a private charity.


The gallery is an oasis of peace in the midst of a busy city. The space has been carefully designed to provide an opportunity for uninterrupted contemplation of visual art without the pressures of commercial galleries and without the admission charges typical of other public galleries. Light, colour and proportion have been used to create an atmosphere suitable for acccessing subtle impressions and insights which are usually obscured by the impact of the urban landscape.


The gallery also provides an outstanding opportunity for contemporary visual artists to display their work without the pressures of commercial considerations. The gallery seeks to exhibit works which engage the viewer's sensations and feelings in a movement toward self-transcendence. The gallery has a view about what art is for: that art is for exploring the larger context of what it means to be human. Submissions from artists are welcome. 80 Gerrard Street East, Toronto, Ontario. www.arcturus.ca. Admission is free.


You can email me at my address below for info on stone balancing classes, events and installations. There may be some regular indoor studio balance classes happening very soon so contact me immediately if you are interested.

This assemblage is from space man ager E.




This is in front of Arcturus on Saturday.

This balance in the city art space has the word "CITY" formed on it. It was found while gathering the material for the City Art gallery show.
Just before the city art closing I pushed the envelope and was able to place another small stone on top.


Today sunday the 3rd of may I will be publically balancing at queen and spadina (a little east on queen.).
