Miranda July

This photo comes from Miranda July and Harrell Fletcher's project "Learning to Love You More."  July and Fletcher proposed different assignments to the public and this photo comes from their suggestion: "Take a photo of your parents kissing."  I think this is an awesome project because it asks the viewer to take responsibility for art - creating different pieces that combine to  become part of a larger project.  Not only are the assignments uplifting (another one was "make an encouraging banner), they are also really interesting to look at because the pieces come from so many different "artists."  I think this picture is beautiful and makes me want to contribute to the project as well.
