Artboards Proposal



My proposed layout for the MO Bank Artboards.  With good fortune, this idea may happen in the Crossroads.

Yesterday, I submitted a proposal to the Missouri Bank Artboards project that works with AiA of Kansas City and Charlotte Street Foundation.  I proposed a series of recent collages that respond to weathered, deteriorating billboards.  In my proposal, I created a small mock-up of my idea and think it turned out pretty well.  The collages I submitted are small (approx. 10"x14" each) and start to include layers of cut rubber, felt, and paper.  I have titled this series of work "Constructed Histories" to reference the cycle that these boards go through during their transformation.  The layering of new signs over the old became a strong thought during my cutting and pasting process.
