paper

working on a new project relating to my over-arching concept for the year. here is the first in my “not ______” series of shirts. based on the idea of how language becomes a source of tension when we intentionally or unintentionally mislabel/stereotype people. also, speaks to what is going on now, regarding the classification of people through the census for 2010.

thanks chris for being an awesome tshirt model.

here are the installation photos.

i took a nap instead of thinking conceptually.

post and you will be awesome.

photos from the install will be up shortly. thanks liz’s blog for reminding me to do this.

i took a nap instead of thinking conceptually. is a collaborative text installation that liz and i worked on this past mlk weekend. here are a few of the install photos. installation photos will be up as soon as i can take em’ thank to andrew parnell for helping us set up a few files, make a website, and mask our loads of vinyl. we took about 3 hours to mask all of the vinyl and then another 10 to install.

we were very proud of our masking skills by the end of the night when we masked “project.” because it was about 68 inches taller than liz and i. intense.
so we took pictures aka portraits with it.

i heart this wall. so proud.
the spider-since we didn’t have putty to hold the laser level in place.
probably around 1 or so in the morning. just 2 more rows of 6 to go. and then around 3 am both liz and i died of vinyl exhaustion.
