Three ideas for REDEFINING THE SPACE
Goal: Reshape public space beyond its original intention in order to:
o Inform the viewer (public service announcement, statistic, fun fact)
o Humor the viewer (Martin Lawrence vinyl cut+ Lawrence Hall sign)
o Inspire the viewer (“the journey of 1000 miles begins with one step”)
o Better serve us as a community
Means of Achievement: Utilize school tools (vinyl, laser, router, large print, or any combination) to inspire/inform other students
Directions:
1. Weekly assignments_ cover two spots a week with vinyl. They can be on or off campus, but must fulfill at least one of the goals. Leave the last 1.5-2 weeks of the term to pick and plan a spot for large vinyl covering. The final should inform, humor, and inspire the viewer, while better the space to best serve the public.
2. Team up with Andrew_ Pick a spot and have a “vinyl showdown”. A topic is picked to best meet the space, we both choose respective colors, and then we have a few days to plan out our logos/designs. Finally we help each other put each other’s work. Hopefully the art school will see the work and allow for future showdowns.
3. Dedication to inspiration_ create art specifically for others to change their environment. Vinyl stickers and stencils will be handed out en mass to the public, which will hopefully inspire future recovering of the space from other students.
