art as engagement tool Community Engagement
Hecho en Philly. Trout River. Tin Can Trust — a creative exchange of messages and personal artifacts between the Puerto Rican diaspora in Allentown, PA and San Juan, PR. Linda's community work invites neighbors into the creative process.
Series Statement
Engagement is at the core of Linda’s practice putting community at the center of the creative process — exchanging ideas, artifacts, and messages of solidarity.
Examples:
Hecho en Philly drew attention to the makers, artists, and creatives working in Philadelphia today. The Trout River residency reimagined a fisherman's museum in Newfoundland. Tin Can Trust was a creative exchange of messages of love and solidarity screenprinted onto Tshirts and exchanged between Allentown, PA and San Juan, PR.
