Learning to Love You More and More is a web site and a physical site of works made by the general public in response to assignments given by Jessica Li, the artist who designed and manages the web site. The whole idea came from another project called Learning to Love You More by Harrell Fletcher, and Miranda July, (and designed by Yuri Ono).

The goal of the assignments is to guide participants in experiencing new experiences and sharing them with others. Anyone who submits work becomes a collaborator with the artist.

Willing participants accept assignments by following the assignment instructions and submitting materials via internet*. Works that exhibit vulgar, violent, or fraudulent behavior of any kind will not be accepted as part of this project.

Works submitted through January 28 to February 28 2012 will be exhibited in Gallery 303 as part of the artist's BFA show.

Special thanks to the artist's parents and siblings, professors and advisors, roommates at The Fort, studio-mates, friends, and to Bluehost’s customer service.
