The funny thing about being on Sound
Transit's
artist
roster is you apply to do one thing, the proposal is accepted, and
then
they ask you to do something else entirely. It's OK, I get it. It's a
big project, there are endless variables, and in the end what I
proposed wasn't feasible. Whatever! I was grateful to be asked to
contribute and the challenge of having to conceive and execute a
project within strict temporal, spatial, and conceptual limits was just
what I needed to shake me out of my recent torpor. Since my assignment
was to decorate a 4-foot plywood star on behalf of the Cal Anderson Park
Alliance, I decided to make something at and about the park. I took
photos from particular spots night
and day and then interpolated them.
It's an idea I've had kicking around for a while and though this was an
acceptable
first attempt I'd still like to push it further. OK?
