In
coordination with the Boston Arts Commission, Bluebrick Studios
participated in a community improvement and public arts program
this past Spring. This city sponsored program works closely with
local artists to create works of art on otherwise unsightly city
owned utility boxes, traffic signal boxes, and the like. These large,
hulking metal boxes are often defaced and sticker covered and can
be a real eyesore on the urban landscape.
Through
the Paintbox Program, I was given the opportunity to combine my
nature painting series with the raw urban grit of these utility
boxes and create
public works of art.
When
painted and varnished properly a Mural can last for several years.
