the hankie project

This project was borne out of the recent sudden death of my father, a handkerchief, some emotive words written by a sibling on his death and the traumatic aftermath of a death processed according to particular societal and cultural mores. Interested artists and Individuals are invited to create an artwork on a handkerchief (any handkerchief not necessarily a man's) based around death/grief/bereavement and return it to me by mid July 2011 for inclusion in a show in Melbourne in August, 2011

I want my hankie to tell a story. It is the viewer's story that it
> tells. It is created so that the hankie can be taken out filled with their story and then be put away again. The gold signifies that it is a treasure to the person that holds this little trinket dear to their heart.
