residency
Friends are asked to walk with a Kyoto resident they admire along the Kamogawa River at dawn or midnight, for two kilometers or three flocks of ducks. Friends are also asked to take care of the garden, and to give away a seed from the garden or elsewhere to someone they meet.
Inviting, welcoming, and gardening in imagination is at the heart of black cat day dream’s residency, supported by a forest of friends.
There is no finished form necessary for anyone to complete.
We gather to share the experience and any curiosities on the last day.
Simple machiya maintenance skills such as tsuchikabe care and gardening, photography and projection installation, birds nest making, seashell and stone collecting, egg tempera painting, komorebi, yukimi, bird feeding, karesansui sweeping, ikebana, among others, can be experienced with Foster, Isabelle, and other friends.
Collaboration is welcome.
