HEXAGON DRAWING IN PROGRESS
The hexagon project invites participants to respond
to a simple yet open-ended prompt:
What is something you’re carrying right now — a question, a worry,
a hope, or a moment that has stayed with you?
Each reflection is drawn or written on a hexagonal card, a shape chosen for its ability to connect and tessellate, forming larger patterns when placed together. This ongoing collection of hexagons becomes a kind of emotional mapping: private yet connected, individual but not isolated. The project began within a school community but is now expanding into libraries, neighborhoods, and other shared spaces. All are welcome to contribute, regardless of age or background.
