POST-IT PROJECT, A PUBLIC VIEW INTO OUR PRIVATE, MUNDANE JOURNEYS
Instigated By Nick Karvounis
As technology connects it equally disconnects. These relatively large-scale reminders, posted communally, radically shift the paradigm between our public and private spaces. The increasing necessity to remind one's self of rudimentary tasks is constantly accelerating, thus creating a friction within our individually maverick and obtuse self. Essentially these notes focus our attention to the price of our removal.
Participating Artists: Christine Bailey, Miles Bumbray, Ingrid Burrington, Ashley Butler, Monique Crabb, Dolphin Press, Justyna Gluch, Leah Koltko, Alex Kondner, Jed Money, Christaine Moore, Alexis Morgan, Katherine Nammacher, Beth Pakradooni, Jed Money, James Rieck, Madeline Scott, Bret Stokes, Christopher Whittey and Stephanie Williford
Exhibition Dates: March 28th - April 11th
Opening Reception: March 28th, 7-10 pm, Music provided by Lance Spicer
