Friend -- You’re invited to THE ROAD BY WALKING, a gallery show of Swoon’s prints, drawings and scale models based on her community projects in Haiti, New Orleans and Braddock, PA. THE ROAD BY WALKING traces the evolution of these projects, and features never-before shown architectural models and Swoon's intimate figure-studies and larger-than-life portrait prints. All proceeds benefit The Heliotrope Foundation, a new non-profit organization founded by Swoon.  A selection of works will be available for auction on Paddle8.com starting on May 1. The Heliotrope Foundation supports three core projects in New Orleans, Haiti and Braddock, Pennsylvania that use art to make lasting social change. We build spaces of wonder in communities recovering from natural disasters and other urgent social crises.
