Drawing a Stranger into a Friend

Home: New York, United States

A two minute activity. Sit directly across from a stranger/ acquaintance/ friend. Use a provided metallic marker to do a "blind contour drawing" of their face. The point is not beautiful art, the point is to truly see each other, 1 heartbeat away.

wanting people to truly see each other, even if just for a moment... also, silliness and hilarity are precious commodities
