WHAT IS MEANINGFUL SOLES ?

'Meaningful Soles' is a youth spirituality and creative arts project in two parts inspired by UK artist Paul Hobbs 'Holy Ground' and bringing the idea to Australia!!

PART ONE
What I would like to do is broaden the project and invite people known and unknown to contribute their shoes and their story to what will become an art installation styled space with lighting, instructions, music, shoes and stories on A4 sheets for people to move amongst, reflect on and engage with.
This reinforces my own belief that every person has a story and every story is worth hearing!!
With young people it's about inviting them to reflect on the life and spirituality of others and to help them make sense of a wide variety of experiences and stories.
Participants will be from a broad spectrum of spirituality and values, the installation will not be overtly Christian only and no shoes will end up on EBay!!

PART TWO
Alongside Part One I will also be running worship, reflection and camping based experiences of people bringing/taking off their own shoes and writing and sharing their own stories in a similar space!
This will be an evolving experiment and photos and stories of any 'Soles' activity and developments will be shared here!!
