Here's a few pics from about the mid point of this piece. It's being done for the following show:
Process Invisible 2
A sticker and wheat paste show. The gallery walls of Street Level will be covered in cardboard, and the stickers and wheat pastes will collaged to create a representation of the current state of street art. The first Process Invisible show took place in 2004 and is one of my all time favorite shows.
At the shows end we will sell pieces of the collage as a fundraiser for a legal fund for the City of Portland vs. Clear Channel legal defense. Clear Channel is challenging the cities strict advertising laws and trying to get the same laws applied to public murals. Basically they want the laws overturned and are using free speech as an excuse to get what they want. A local group is representing the mural artists interest and we want to support them. Otherwise nothing submitted to this show will be sold for profit.
Where & When:
Street Level Gallery
909 N Beech, #B
Portland, OR
The show will open on Saturday June 9th and stay up all month long and part of July.
This is acrylic, latex, posca, sharpie, paint marker on wallpaper. It's about 40 x60 inches, which is quite a bit larger than I've worked in a long, long time. It's kind of made me want to go and get some canvases this large. hmmm. maybe.
Here's a detail.
