thoughtFULL

I had a book of thoughts and notes that I had written throughout the year which I wanted to let go. Devon and I were trying to think of a way to creatively let them go. “why don’t we let other people, let go of there thoughts too?” We asked ourselves. And THEN we thought, wait a second, as people let go of their thoughts, other people could catch them. We wanted to create thought exchange.

To do this we made strings of beads. Each string was covered in clips. We hung the strings at the train stop, with a sign and stack of paper and pencils. The sing said, “leave a thought, take a thought.” For three days the strings of beads were full as people took and left thoughts. After three days the MBTA took down the strings, because there was no permit for them.

Below are some images of what the strings looked liked, and then some images of what notes people wrote on them.
