Instillation of Community and Home

Kooy's special community-building project: "Handprints Extravaganza!!"
This part of the "Openings" show was created during the artist's recent summer stay on Long Island's North Fork,
Where she (and willing volunteers) jointly hand-painted and pressed their unique hand-stamps, 
onto several multi-paned glass windows. The "Handprints Extravaganza" windows represent a wildly diverse age-range
and size of human (and a few canine) paw and handprints.
Her partner Leonore Gordon created a photographic documentation of the participants and the process.

Myra Kooy fell in love with the natural beauty Long Island’s North Fork has to share.
This exhibit is an expression of the romantic dance that she shared with the Island
over the summer of 2013. Please come out and walk through the Installation and
enjoy the inside art gallery.
