Kamal Sidhu, part of a three-generation farming family from India, now owns Cedar Farms alongside his two brothers. In 1997, their dad bought an overgrown farm with the intention of developing houses there. While his father was away in India for about a month, his mom, grandma and cousin picked berries from the property, then sold them at a local farmers market. Upon his return the elder Sidhu learned about the unexpected—and highly successful—project, and the family has been at it ever since. @ Puyallup, Washington

Live from Oregon. Healing.
Over the past two months, Statehood Media has worked on Healing, a collaborative project that brings together Ashland cellist Daniel Sperry and Oregon Ballet Theatre dancer Xuan Cheng. We started to find a way to express hope during the anxiety surrounding the pandemic. We harnessed the talents of these amazing artists to create something beautiful and healing in a time where we need both.

Daniel Sperry @cellotroubadour, a classically trained cellist who plays in Lithia Park during warm months, created a soaring and complex original score for this piece on both cello and piano. Xuan Cheng @chengxuan119 from Chenzhou, China and a principal ballerina at OBT for the past nine years created the original dance and movement for Healing. Jessica Smith, a recent graduate of the University of Oregon School of Journalism was our lead videographer and editor.

What feeling does this evoke? Does this inspire you?

06/24/2020

A principal ballerina, a bridge and a cellist? Stay tuned.
