Thank you BBC Radio Sheffield for sharing our story
THE WATERLILY PROJECT IS NOW ONLINE
THANK YOU TO ALL WHO JOINED OUR PREMIERE SCREENING!
Dear Viewers,
Waterlily by its very essence is what these times are all about, despite and perhaps even because of the murky waters a beautiful flower arises. This project has been a microcosm of the macrocosm, a living example of what we can create when we work together regardless of belief systems, backgrounds, and location.
🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷
Life is messy, short, at times gut-wrenching, it is also surprising, heartwarming and even a little magic in the simplest of ways - eg a luscious flower out of muddy waters. This project has always been intended as an offering, every artist, every contributor has put anywhere from a couple of hours to the past two years to make something without expecting anything in return other than respect for their humanity.
🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷
Due to the evolving circumstances, after much deliberation, we moved our screening event online, so you can now watch the films from the comfort of your own home. The film collection is a mixture of social commentary, personal experience, inspiration and honest articulation of some of the grittiest times in my life personally (with themes many can relate to.) It does not aim nor claim to have answers or the “right” perspectives nor ideas about those themes, but it does speak honestly - at times sensitively at other times with fervor.
🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷
Our chosen charity is grateful for donations of every size. Their building is closed down and they are unable to take new clients for the time being, but their therapists are continuing to give free phone counselling sessions to all of their ongoing clients, and these are the sort of times when support for the emotionally and physically vulnerable is needed. I send you all my love, my respect, and my encouragement to keep taking things one day at a time, to be kind to yourself and know that you are loved.
🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷
Kindly, from my heart to yours,
Waterlily x 🌷
