Contributing posters
This is the result of my little social experiment.
I was inspired by the concept of every day and participatory art and also by the idea of “creating reality” through art.*
I put 3 large pieces of paper on different walls, in a staircase of the university, between the 8th, 9th and 10th floors. Each poster had markers hanging beside it and just one phrase written on:
-Draw reality
-Sketch the truth
-Trace a fact
Over the whole semester, people added comments and drawings.
At the end of the semester, one of them was missing.
The last time I saw the poster "Sketch The Truth", it looked like this. (Right)
However, at some point, a forth poster appeared!
(It eventually disappeared too.)
