P is for Parkour and Play in the M.A.P.S. system that I created to help women over 40 reclaim and increase their physical strength and confidence so they can get their mojo back, feel brave, have adventures and age with grace.
A day at Inhotim blew my mind. The nature, the art and the invitations I felt to play and move.
This is the arts in my series of where art, nature and play and movement meet.
Groundwork flow inspired by the sounds of the underground!

Glass-and-steel pavilion lined with plastic filme, 202-meter-deep tubular well, microphones and sound-amplifying equipment, variable dimensions.
Inaugurated in 2009, the gallery is the result of a five-year process around the research, design, and construction of the work Sonic Pavilion, developed from the experience of artist Doug Aitken at Instituto Inhotim. In the center of the space lays a 202 meters deep hole, where a set of microphones are installed to capture the sounds of the earth. Transmitted in real-time, the noise occupies the whole space. The gallery’s glass walls are covered by a filter that makes the landscape of valleys and mountains sharp when seen from the front, and diffuse when observed from any other angle.
