Planting the Seeds, Spreading the Flames

Steve Scott has written an article for ArtWay about the ideas behind Run With The Fire, the joint Olympics-themed art project organised by CANA, commission4mission, and Veritasse. Steve concludes the article by writing: 
"We are compiling the results [of the artist's work] into a digital video presentation for projection on screen or monitor in a local church or community settings. The exhibition organizers will also put a show of local artwork on display to accompany the digital display. This combination of virtual presentation and real local art can open in multiple locations at the same time. Each exhibition combines the global with the truly local. Some churches and organizations have already expressed an interest in being part of this. We are hoping that, along with the complementary global and local aspects of the display, the overall ‘image’ of a digitally created network can be seen as part of the larger, all inclusive ‘art work.’
While it has been a journey of adventures, detours and surprising connections so far, I still view this very much as a beginning. Who knows where a global/local conversation about art, imagination and peace might go in this chaotic, digitally connected world?"
