So the other week when I helped Burnett&Fuller with their installation Matt showed me this really cool invention of his: An old-fashioned cigarette machine they've filled with little boxes of art from regional artists! So you put in a dollar, and then choose your brand (they all look the same), and see what's in the little box you get.
Anyway I want in, so I'm going through my photos and designs to pick out what pieces would look best really small and severely cropped. A pack of cigarettes is exactly 3.25 X 2.25 inches. Should I make my pieces a little smaller like 3.24 2.24 to allow for the I dunno width of the paper of the box? Seriously I have no manufacturing XP:(
Diana said It should be new art created for that size... I'll see what I can do.
That sounds awesome! Like those machines you put a quarter in at Price Chopper, except you get art instead of plastic bling..
ReplyDeleteI saw pictures of that stuff in Diana's flickr page. It randomly sends me updates of flickr contacts. Those paintings and sculptures are very interesting. Do you know if that exhibition had a link?
