Recently I offered up some help to Scott Massey who puts together RRR magazine. This is what he said, “collaborate with someone and make cool shit, and send it to me. That is all I need.” Above is six of eleven pieces that frequent collaborator Pete Skvara and I did in a 4 hour collage freakout at his home studio for the Rrelease show in California. See a digital sneak peek e-zine of the mag here.
The Chicago Urban Arts Society asked me to participate in their Pop-Up Storefront Gallery project here in the Pilsen Area of Chicago. Because of the budget restrains I invited Pete Skvara to the table. We took a couple evenings and a bunch of salvaged materials from over the years and made it happen. The result is a twenty-by-ten foot installation. Cost of supplies to create and install the installation… zero dollars. Between Pete and I and our hoarder habits, we had enough material to freak out at just about any size without going broke. Here is a link to the flickr set of process and final photos.
Here is the big collaborative poster that Jesse Brown and I did during our Life Long Work Week residency at Renegade Handmade here in Chicago. Purchase here.
