connecting thru grasses

connecting thru grasses is offered as part of Christina Battle's exhibition, how to feel the weight of the moment, a series of repetitions and speculations. Pick up your seed pack at the IKG and sign up below.

As a participant in this project you are being asked to plant grass seeds in at least 2 different locations across the Canadian Prairies [here defined as Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba] and map their coordinates on the google map documenting the project. Instructions as to how to use the map can be found to the right on this page.

This project requires at least occasional access to the internet.

Make sure to check your spam folder for the project emails. ‘connecting thru grasses’ will always be in the subject line.

Seed packs can be picked up at IKG: packs are limited, and sign up will be accepted until they run out!

As grasses are planted and mapped they will update on the google map above. To document your own participation – locate where your seeds are planted and add a marker along with a note as to which grasses you planted here.

To use google places:

1. enter your location in the search bar
2. click ‘add to map’
3. select the ‘edit button’
4. adjust the name of your location as you see fit
5. add additional info in description & click ‘save’
