Sunseeds is a community project that initiates conversations around the changing conditions of New Mexico and celebrates the forces of nature that shape our environment and sustain life. I worked with over 100 children within the community of Taos to collectively create many, silver, light-catching kites. We collectively came together at a site within the surrounding desert landscape of New Mexico to fly them. The kites caught and reflected the sun back to Earth, appearing as though the stars had suddenly come out in the day. The kites are like seeds in that they depend on the light of the sun and the power of the wind to come ‘alive’. Each individual kite flier holds a string tethered their Sun Seed to the earth and is responsible for taking care of it. The collectivity of all of the kite flyers together creates the possibility of a whole shimmering spectacle of light.
