Participate in 126 Sears Street

I am collecting drawings of this Greek Revival house in Ithaca for my next public installation. Anyone is welcome to submit a drawing, whether you are from Ithaca or not. I hope you (and your friends) will participate! I will digitally project YOUR drawings of this house onto the same house (like this).  Combined with my own drawings and photographs, this public installation is a collaborative sculpture about our landscape.

the details:

1) Download this picture of 126 Sears Street to draw from.

2) Make a sketch, doodle, oil painting, collage, sculpture, etc. of  this house. Don’t worry if it isn’t perfect. Children, artists, and people of any other profession are welcome to participate.

3) Mail it to 410 Winston Ct #5, Ithaca, NY 14850 or email a high-resolution file attn: Sears. Include your full name in the file name, so that I can remember who did each one. The resolution of your file should be at least 1280 x 1280, 100 dpi.

4) There is limited space in the video installation. Final submissions must be received by March 10th.

You can see similar projects here, here, and here. For those of you who heard about Waterburg Plaza in September, this project is a continuation of that project. 126 Sears Street is generously supported by the Experimental Television Center. Check this blog for more information about the installation and images of the submissions. Email me with any questions about the project.

    Hi, just read this on the MARK site, I’m in! I paint/draw/sculpt houses chronically. I’m doing an AIR program @ EEAC in Riverhead right now and it’s basically all houses so this looks fun! Thanks for the opportunity- Jen Gioe Peper
