9th Annual Sculpture Exhibition at Fallbrook Art Center

One small section of the Post for United States of Women.
This post features Michael Obama and Kamila Harris.
The author was lucky to be the lead artist. 

The Fallbrook Art Center's 9th Annual Sculpture Exhibition displays contemporary pieces that challenge traditional forms to classical sculptures that pay homage to timeless techniques.  With interactive installations and thought-provoking displays, one of the highlights of the show is 14 Post for Peace created under the direction of Kira Corser. Each work was designed together with community input, but a lead artist always insured the work was visually stunning. These works are the perfect combination of the result of social prescribing. They allow for connections to be made about issues of importance. But they are also a moment of absolute wonder that bring joy to the soul.

The following was inspired by Alessandra Colfi, another arts for healing teacher. “You are not a machine. You are a soul who needs art, connections, sunsets, laughter and small pockets of joy. Prioritize them like your life depends on it because it does. Life is not meant to be a cycle of stress and survival. We have been conditioned to think that constant productivity equal worth, but humans were not design for constant output. We need moments of wonder, connection and rest, not as reward for hard work, but as essential ingredients for a meaningful life.”  

Art can give you all of this. Think of social or art prescribing as a way to take in joy, the same way as you might swallow a daily pill to lower your blood pressure and reduce your cholesterol.

Please note: these post are tall and have images and words on all four sides. Walk through the forest of post and be amazed!
