Amma: the face of compassion.

Theme: compassion. My friends separate their recycling and leave the bottles on the curb to make it easier for the guys who collect the bottles out of trash and recycling
bins.
Leader: We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you.
All: Because by your holy cross You have redeemed the world.
Jesus, suddenly a woman comes out of the crowd. Her name is Veronica. You can see how she cares for you as she takes a cloth and begins to wipe the blood and sweat from your face. She can't do much, but she offers what little help she can.
As a child, sometimes I know someone could use a little help and understanding. They may be picked on or teased by others, or just sad or lonely. Sometimes I feel bad that others don't step in to help, but I don't help either.
As an adult, I notice the needs around me. Sometimes my own family members crave my attention, and I don't even seem to notice. Sometimes a co-worker, friend, or family member could use help or understanding, but I don't reach out to help lest I be criticized, or that they demand more of me than I'd like to give.
My tender Jesus, Who didst deign to print Thy sacred face upon the cloth with which Veronica wiped the sweat from off Thy brow, print in my soul deep, I pray Thee, the lasting memory of Thy bitter pains.
Our Father.... Hail Mary.... Glory be to the Father....
Leader: Jesus Christ Crucified.
All: Have mercy on Us.
Leader: May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, Rest in peace.
All: Amen.
Then Pilate took Jesus and had him scourged. And the soldiers wove a crown out of thorns and placed it on his head, and clothed him in a purple cloak, and they came to him and said,"Hail, King of the Jews!" And they struck him repeatedly.
John 19: 1-3
I scanned this first but it was way TOO WHITE....so, I had to take a picture of it instead.
I used watercolor pencils on the sky, the hair & the dog. I'm ok with the hair & dog, but Ugh on the sky....Tips anyone? Anyone?

The Goddess of Compassion and Mercy: Quan Yin - Kuan Yin - is an incarnation of Mary, Sophia, and other feminine icons. They are all the same soul - given the Yin frequency.
In many images She is depicted carrying the pearls of illumination. Often Quan Yin is shown pouring a stream of healing water, the "Water of Life," from a small vase. With this water devotees and all living things are blessed with physical and spiritual peace. She holds a sheaf of ripe rice or a bowl of rice seed as a metaphor for fertility and sustenance. The dragon, an ancient symbol for high spirituality, wisdom, strength, and divine powers of transformation, is a common motif found in combination with the Goddess of Mercy.
Sometimes Kuan Yin is represented as a many armed figure, with each hand either containing a different cosmic symbol or expressing a specific ritual position, or mudra. This characterizes the Goddess as the source and sustenance of all things. Her cupped hands often form the Yoni Mudra, symbolizing the womb as the door for entry to this world through the universal female principle.
This quote hung on Dorothea Lange's dark room door:
"The contemplation of things as they are, without error or confusion, without substitution or imposture, is in itself a nobler thing than a whole harvest of invention."
~ Francis Bacon
In our daily lives we may not particularly like what we hear and see, but when one has the courage to contemplate these things without error, confusion, or our imagination, then one is in a nobler place where compassion will come forth.
Compassion for one's self...,
Compassion for another...
Dorothea Lange held a compassionate eye behind her camera.

2021-03-13 Hambidge Second Saturday STUDIO TOUR at the Cross-Pollination Art Lab Lindbergh Center
SCHEDULE
• In the Cube Gallery (noon-4pm) you will find "The Space Between," a new project from Dr. Fahamu Pecou that works to dispel the pervasive myth of violence and discord within the Black male community, and seeks to both normalize expressions of care, concern, and compassion while challenging the pervasive image of Black violence and trauma.
• Jessica Brooke Anderson will be offering visitors (one at a time) an opportunity to select a gift from her collection of family objects. She recently inherited 3 houses worth of heirlooms, and is using this opportunity to redistribute these items to the community. In exchange for "adopting" a piece of her family history, she is asking to photograph each object with its new owner, in hopes of creating a new family tree, made up of strangers, all interconnected through the lives and objects that came before.
• Participate in a self-led writing exercise / creativity booster in the space outside of Arvin Temkar’s studio. Arvin is a writer and photographer whose work examines complexity, tension, and hope in a multiracial, multiethnic America, and has been published in major publications across the country. He will also be displaying some of his photography in the windows of his studio.
• Visit the Teller Productions Workshop to observe artist Scottie Rowell’s shadow puppet play time and experience Push. Press. Pull., an ever-changing art installation exploring human’s love of buttons. Only one family/group/pod allowed in the space at time.
• Jasmine Williams and Sierra King are excited to share with the public in progress works across both of their disciplines of printmaking and archiving. The public at large is welcomed into their space, limited to 2 at time, to view THROUGHLINE - where the lives of Black Women Artists intersect. Additionally there will be limited edition "I AM WOMAN" tote bags that were hand printed in the art lab and older edition prints available to purchase by Jasmine Nicole Williams.
• FRANK/ie CONSENT will present ‘Love Shrines,’ their first installation of shared things, in which their new album (collaborated with The Cradle) will play with casual, non-demanding events happening and video documentation of their recent love baptism. After the installation, there will be a live music performance by FRANK/ie CONSENT and the generosities of people they love. The performance will begin around 5:30.
• Floyd Hall will be presenting Seeing + Sounds, featuring a series of streaming recorded audio content in addition to visual projections.
• From 2-3:30, Matriarc Society will be providing a photo shoot session with a local femme music maker at no cost. Guests may observe the process from the windows on the corner of Magnolia Lane and Morosgo Drive.
• Dance Hub ATL residents are approaching this event as an open process with space to have conversations if visitors are interested in learning more. Four artists - Porter Grubbs, Catherine Messina, Frankie Mulinix and Nadya Zeitlin - will share glimpses of their current creations. In addition to performances, we will introduce a new addition to our Hub - installations by Dima Alekseyev. For more details and updates, check their Instagram page @dance_hub_atl. Donations are greatly appreciated and will support artists' further process.
