Hexagon Project
http://www.hexagonproject.org
The International Hexagon Project, an all-volunteer visual arts organization based in Scranton, Pennsylvania, initiated in 2006. It was inspired by the Interdependence Movement launched in Philadelphia in 2003, as a post 9/11 remembrance. Interdependence Day is observed every year on September 12.
Our mission is to spread the idea of interdependence through school- and community-created hexagons. In this project, Themes of social justice, identity, peace and the environment are expressed, through the arts, in an increasingly interconnected world.
The shape of hexagon was chosen as a metaphor for interconnectedness, that shows a composition of complex relationships, interdependent lines, like bonds of human connection. It is an architectural element in which multiples attach and strengthen one another to become an infinite network of connections.
