Public Art Alteration

This will be a quick, two week project, in which you will select a single piece of public art in Philadelphia to which you will recommend be changed, altered, moved or amended in some way. You will suggest a change to that piece of art that may alter is context, history, form, meaning, site – or all of those. This change may ultimately change its meaning.

  1. Select an artwork that interests you.
  2. Create a miniature of that work.
  3. Use the miniature as a model to alter the work in some way – then photographing it in its new form, context etc.
  4. Turn in a physical or digital image (or set of images).
