Urban Interventions: Personal Projects In Public Spaces
Incredible book - definitely on my wish list! Just filled with genius idea after genius idea.
Manipulation of existing signage and imagery, creating a new spin on taken-for-granted visuals.
Personifying the marks left by humans in a given space - turning potentially detrimental objects into relatable characters.
Incorporating light - the sun's changing position throughout the day creates a unique experiene for every viewer.
Playing upon society's instinct to rebel - covering boarded up windows and doors with brick-like paper to entice graffiti, then peeling it of and using the sheets in a commercial art exhibition.
Chaining objects to their surroundings, taking things out of context.
Creating a new narrative for ordinary and mundane surroundings.
Braille Graffiti! Cartering for otherwise excluded members of society.
