PROJECTS getting consciously creative
DMo projects are public initiatives that aim to nurture human connection through creativity...
LINES IN A SQUARE
(2017+) TRAVELLING MUSE PROJECT Lines in a Square is a travelling muse project using lines to express observations, interactions and vibes of city squares around the world. Squares are meeting points, hangout spaces, travel-through zones, historical landmarks and top tourist destinations, and throughout their existence seem to take on a life of their own. This makes them excellent spaces from which to muse in the tradition of en plein air, yet DMo is swapping an easel and paints and brushes for her lap and paint pens. |

CREATIVE THOUGHT SPACE
(2013+) CREATIVE RESEARCH PROJECT Creative Thought Space is a creative research project that began on the heels of an essayistic work in development about living a life creative. The premise: Creativity connects us. Connection creates us. Therefore creativity has the power to create personal change and social change on local and global community levels. And so DMo thought, what better way to examine and share the importance of creativity, as well as insight into the often elusive world of artistic creation, than by asking other living, working creatives their responses to five base questions on creativity. Contributors are from differing backgrounds, countries and disciplines, linked by the common thread of creative expression. |
HANDS ON HEARTS
(2021) GLOBAL ART PROJECT Taking a poetics piece from 2005, DMo began a video collaboration with South Korean performer Sujin Lee, which resulted in the collaged video art piece Hands on Hearts (2021). This video ushered in the Hands on Hearts global art project, to act as a timely reminder of our aliveness, and an interconnectedness running through life that we rarely notice. Now more than ever, when democracy hangs in the balance and deception is rife, do we need to recognize our connection and the power that lies in this truth. |
SPEAK YOUR VOICE
(2018) MURAL PROJECT + GLOBAL SOCIAL CHALLENGE The #SpeakYourVoice mural project came to life during DMo's incredible experiences in Southern India. Threaded through the intense beauty of the land are harsh divides. These divides are felt from a young age, so DMo created a mural project with the collaboration of the Lourdes Servite School in Chidambaram, Tamil Nadu, to work with the children of the local community and help them speak their voice through painted imagery. |
DANCING AROUND THE WORLD
(2016) GLOBAL FILM PROJECT Dancing Around The World was a global film project presented by DMo in association with ReiMoves. It was created to stand up in the face of separatism by bringing people together through the unifying language of dance movement and remembering that which unites us not divides us! |
KISS OFF!
(2014) GLOBAL INITIATIVE KISS OFF! was a global initiative run by DMo and sponsored by Raindance, taking place during week of June 28 to July 4, 2014. During this week people around the world were encouraged to share a photo or vine video of a same sex kiss in the name of love, equality and human rights. It was a creative way to challenge societal homophobia and bring awareness to the persecutions people face because of their sexual orientation and identity. It was also a visual celebration of love and life, using art to educate and unite. |
