Creative Collaborators Celebrate Solar Eclipse Collection

You Tuber Bonnie Diczhazy and Screenwriter/Actor, Lenny Pinna have a long history of connecting community with their creative collaborations. Three decades ago they founded Ecclesia Theater at Lake Erie College in Painesville, Ohio which brought diverse communities together through their imaginative theater offerings. Recently, on the Ecclesia Arts YouTube channel they produced the series pilot for a new proposed Limited TV Series, In The Name of Jamie Wakefield “Too Pretty For a Boy” which is geared toward connecting a wide range audience to a provocative period story.

Their current collaborative synergy is expressed in their new “Art Meets Apparel” T-shirt and Tote designs for their branded company, BonLeo.com. They set their sight on the upcoming Solar Eclipse as a celebratory event that will manifest their core values to integrate diversity and connect community. Their expansive Solar Eclipse Collection: Connecting the Cosmic Community from Global to Local is an ambitious and well-thought-out concept of supporting community commonality while engaging with an extraordinary cosmic event.

Lenny Pinna created the global design for “Solar Eclipse” using the primary colors—yellow, red and blue. The design cleverly aligns the sun and moon using the actual words “SOLAR” and ECLIPSE” with the “I” in eclipse representing the path of the eclipse’s shadow on the earth. The essential global design is then localized to North America with red emblems representing USA, Canada and Mexico on the “shadowed earth.” The design is further localized with red “state” silhouettes representing the U.S. states which are in the direct path of the eclipse’s shadow. Thus anyone can choose to be a part of the cosmic community celebration of the April 8th, 2024 Solar Eclipse from a global to local perspective by choosing to wear their particular location or perspective within the overall unifying design.
