It's HAPPENING!
YEAR IN RAINBOW BEGINS TODAY, TUESDAY SEPTEMBER FIRST! Check it all out over at www.YearinRainbow.com ! It's been almost 6 months since I've hit the stage, and in an effort to give myself some artistic work, I'm re-launching an Art as Life project that I did in 2007 with the same title and the same concept (apart from the live performance aspect!)
As you know most performing artists in the world have lost their jobs (there are a few countries that care about their citizens and are opening up theaters again, but this country, oy vey!) Anyway I'm out of a job and always do best when I work for myself so Year in Rainbow is happening over on my Patreon!
There are a TON of awesome exclusives, involving color based workshops, daily videos, video of past performances (One Woman Rainbow and Untitled Rainbow Project), one of a kind color coordinated face masks and BRAND NEW experimental videos!! Here's a description of the project! I hope you will join me on this journey!
WHAT IS YEAR IN RAINBOW?
Darlinda Just Darlinda presents A YEAR IN RAINBOW September 1, 2020- August 31, 2021 inspired by Linda M. Montano's 14 Years of Living Art, via Morty Diamond's Year in Pink.
A YEAR IN RAINBOW is Darlinda's 3rd foray into the "living art" milieu, August 2007- July 2008 she did Year in Rainbow, September 2009- November 2010 she did Year in Dance.
For 12 months Darlinda will conduct an artistic exploration of color, researching how it feels/ how the world reacts to wear one color, documenting that experience and creating an experimental video and class with her findings on each color. These findings will also inform and create content her live performance works (Untitled Rainbow Project and One Woman Rainbow when the stage safely available
