CREATE ART WITH US
WHO WE ARE
AsGoodAsMine_Collective creates interactive experiences that merge art and community through conceptualization, creative design and site specific installations in conventional and unexpected locations. The Collective is made up of an affiliation of artists that come together, pull in other talent and collaborate to create unique expressions. We utilize performance, photography, moving images, dance, textiles and interpret them into maker events, interactive installations and public art events. Let's do a project.

PROJECTS
#YOURGODDESSISASGOODASMINE
Ordinary to Extrodinary
Inspired by the global use of flower headdress, members of the collective began creating headdresses during maker events and the project evolved to an interactive, public portrait event curated through social media. The project is titled as a challenge the concept of putting women and religion in competition with each other. Events are spontaneous, transformative and high energy. The project seeks to bring people together and promote ideas of connection and empowerment. At #YourGoddessIsAsGoodAsMine events we bring flower crowns, robes, a pop-up photo studio and lots of selfie sticks. Then with our help, people briefly transform themselves for a portrait and/or selfie. All the photos are tagged and curated on Instagram through the hashtag. In collaboration with photographer Mike Waddell and other artists, the collective has held 3 pop up "Goddess" events. Over 80 photos are currently posted through with the hashtag on Instagram and Facebook.
