Greetings From Motherland (http://www.greetingsfrommotherland.com) is a community art project that gathers mothers and caregivers together to create honest representations of motherhood through workshops and participatory events. In this presentation, Artistic Director Mindy Stricke will share the evolution of the project, her process of collaboration, and stories and art from completed and in-progress works. The audience will also be invited to contribute to the Motherland Postcard Rack, an evolving participatory installation from the project.

Mindy Stricke is a photographer and community artist whose work involves multi-disciplinary collaborations and installations that challenge traditional boundaries between artists and non-artists, between artists and audience and between process and product. Her portraits and other work have been exhibited throughout North America and have been featured in international publications including the New York Times, Time Magazine, Newsweek, Voce and in the Smithsonian Institute Photography Initiative exhibit Click! Photography Changes Everything.
