Excited to do a little artist talk at Urbanglass at 6:00 pm tonight as a part of my residency there this summer and officially debut this drawing submission box sculpture. Hooray NEA funding and public engagement- I will choose my one lucky drawing from this box or website will be chosen to be be made in new colors of neon.
In this way we can collaborate and have both co own the outcome.
The acrylic box is made from scraps of acrylic that were once used in a Manhattan ad campaign and were slated for the trash.
You can also submit digital drawings here (line drawings preferred)
https://color.cccfl.co/
I will choose the drawing to make on August 20th.
