FigmentDC

this year was my second time participating in FigmentDC -- it was also the second time that it was offered in DC. Figment is a participatory, outdoor arts fair.

building on the "field of plates" theme from last year, this year i decided to take advantage of the wind along the Anacostia River and build a field of pinwheels. luckily, i had a lot of enthusiastic help from 5 Soundry alumni.

here are some photos from this year's event:

lots of participants:
