Nest led a former life

This nest led a former life as another installation last winter for Winter is Alive a global festival discussing climate change.

Site specific installations can lead new lives, so can much of our waste or items that no longer serve their intended purpose. The original Siphonophore ( deep sea colonial organism made up of individual zooids) was constructed from 20 people's cord piles.

These cords were no longer useful, they had another life as a creature and now transformed yet again into a nest .

I keep asking:
How do we build on/ with what we already have to create new pathways for connection?

And you can respond too. This exact question and others invite you to contemplate, write, draw, add to this nest at Wisconsin Lutheran College.
