"The Flying Hammocks"
"The Flying Hamuckus" began with my family

as an act we could all do together.

Today, family members often move far apart.

Then, there are extended family,

and friends who seem like family.

"The Flying Hamuckus"

was one solution to the question

"what wild, fun thing can we do,

when we are all so busy and far apart?"

Can we think of ways to go above and beyond

the yearly family picnic?

New realms to explore together?

As a family?

As a global family?

I wanted this project to change shape and be surprising.

It began on the web site, right here.

Then it graduated to real space.

The images are incorporated in a blue skies mural

at Creative Space Place, New Brunswick, N.J.

The images have recently been enlarged and

have leaped off their two dimensional wall into upper aerial space,

mobilized, flying free.

The allusion to a circus troupe is intentional.

Life is a balancing act.
