Photos of the Radar 88 (Hugs and Kisses) Venue During Nuit Blanche Ottawa 2012

Thank you to my partner and my friends for having taken the following photos for me to share with you all!
Radar 88 Event Venue from Afar

Preparing the Site and Helping Light Candles

Crowd Gathers. Many Waves of People Came and Went.
Each Time the Venue Would Welcome Groups of 60 to 100 People at a Time.
Venue from Afar.
The Canvasses Were Initially Fastened to the Top of the Posts.


Once the Great Wind Blew, Many People Gathered to Help Me Unfastened the Canvasses from the Top of the Posts and Lower Them unto the Ground Level.
This was a Great Opportunity Since It Brought People to Actually Hug the Canvasses -
So Symbolic and Touching to Witness all this Altruism.
More People Gather. More Candles are Lit.
Around 300 Candles Were Displayed.
Provided Lighters Ran Out of Fluid Fast.
Sudden Gusts of Wind Surprised Us, and Still People Lit Insistently Candles.

People Circulated Introspectively: Reading in Silence, Lighting Candles, Sharing, Crying,  Pledging their Engagement to Change the World in their Own Way.
Solemn Music Was Played.
Encens Was Burnt.

Great Friends of Mine Helped Tend to The Canvasses When Winds Blew.
Also, They Helped Keep the Flames of the Lit Candles Alive.

People Reading the Sacred Oath of the Venue: Respect, Love, Forgiveness, Atonement, Engagement

Many People Liked this Particular Canvass and Took Many Photos.

The Venue Was Available to Be Seen By the Public Until Very Early in The Morning ( From 7PM to 3 AM!)
