This art piece is a collaborative one that blossomed into a whole school project involving every single child. During a session with their grade level buddies, students were asked to clear their minds, close their eyes and think about their biggest hopes and dreams. As they did this they rolled a small piece of colored rice bread, literally molding their wishes into these pieces of dough. Artist and WNS Dad Carlo Marcucci was tasked with how to best display this powerful message of what our children wished for their future. His design creates a dynamic and inspiring modern art piece that can be appreciated without any context. But when understanding the deep & special meaning behind the 543 carefully and lovingly attached pearls on a background of hopeful ocean like waves, the viewer can't help but to be moved by the powerful collective positivity this 1 of 1 art piece exudes.
