Climate Art
Ok. So Basically I went into work on Monday, got happily roped into making a huge commissioned "mural" on this huge ramp/entryway in less than fifteen hours.
Here's what happened:
The Climate Project, charity organization trying to end or at least slow down pollution and its effects on the environment (via the teachings of Al Gore) were holding this big celebrity cocktail party thing at my work on Tuesday night. The woman who organized the whole thing saw some art that I'd made in my boss's office, and decided that they wanted me to make some for their event. Of course I said yes, as it was being covered by tons of major magazines and newspapers, and besides, who wouldn't love to get paid an hourly wage to make art.
Anyway. I worked from four in the afternoon until one in the morning, went home, got three and a half hours of sleep, got back to work at six-thirty, and worked until ten in the morning, and I was done right as the press started to arrive. You can see a couple of the photos here, but if you want to see more, click on the link and see my flickr account.
Love,
Julie
