I just got an invitation for our organization to participate in ‘portraying homelessness in art.’ Haha. We do music, so unfortunately we won’t be able to participate. But if we could, we wouldn’t. Let’s see — Michelangelo vs ‘homelessness’ — which portrays real beauty??

-——‘portraying homelessness in art———

Let’s see........ perhaps an all white or light gray canvas. The concept is nothing or absence of a dwelling.

Then perhaps a sculpture, a wooden base with a clearly defined platform on top. The emptiness on top also conveys nothing, the absence of a dwelling.

Or perhaps a performance. The curtain opens and nothing happens. The concept of nothing, the absence of a dwelling is portrayed by silence and the blank brick wall behind the stage
