Participant commentary
Public Moves Federal Hill
"A simultaneous participant and observer, I realized how easily a mass of unrelated people can gather and work towards a common goal with so much tacit, mutual understanding."
"What I feel is a sense of discovery and excitement at what has been discovered."
Everything from sounds of cars, whispers and yelling, frogs croaking and bellowing, and even our little blades of grass really came together in a unique way.
"I will never look at the Winter Garden in the same way. Since the first
time I entered it in the summer of 2000 I have traveled through it in a
state of waking sleep. Now I have a totally new connection to the space."
"It's just amazing how art and collaboration could transcend all manner of barriers,
brought people from different cultures, backgrounds and ages together, and created such a beautiful performance."
