The (S)mile is a long meditative walk, marked by the letter “S”. Bring a memento on paper that is personally important and focus on its meaning, your gratitude, and love for that memento during the walk. The memento will then be added to a collage on display in an advertising box in 5 Points MARTA station, thus creating a collectively shared memento of life. The collage will be updated weekly and curated by the artist.
