About
&Love is apart of the Love Project - a series of participatory art pieces exploring the topic of love. &Love follows suit from a suggestion from Bell Hooks, All About Loving, where she states “Imagine how much easier it would be for us to learn how to love if we began with a shared definition.”
This project invited people to write out their definition of love, showing us the various meanings of love. Some of the meanings shared similarities and others offered a different perspective of what love means to people.
Duration: February 1 - February 28
Location: Oberlin Village Library, Raleigh, NC
