Spring Bee Hiving Moon
ESL tour was wonderful. When asked if they recognized any of the objects, the response from the Vietnamese and Cambodians, “No. The old people, they know about that. But not us.” At a Hmong piece, I asked one young woman a question. Her reply. “I no sprek Engrish.”
Still, it was obvious that seeing these objects from their home cultures resonated with them, and gave a hook, a place to return to later. I suggested bringing some of the old people along.
My Sports Show tour only had 2 people, but it went well. I transited backwards, starting with Zidane again and found, again, that it made the tour livelier, more engaging.
Bought a short book on Symbolist art for lunch time reading. Some interesting insights. I’ll share them later.
