Lego Fill

Inspired from watching Jan Vormann on YouTube, a wall gap on Congress Street—down the street from the children's museum—was filled with legos. The legos were ripped out of the wall for new high end condos, but the work lives on via the internet as a meme with over 1600 shares.
Visit the Dispatchwork website to see lego fills from around the world.

‪Laptop Guerrilla Art Projec‬t

Located next to the Harbor Towers in Boston, the two large stainless steel sculptures (installed in 1964 long before laptop computers existed) are examples of minimalist art. The six painted vinyl decals transform them into laptop computer facsimiles—pop art.

‪Painted Dead Trees

Dead trees transformed into art trees. I wrapped them in plastic and sprayed them with house paint. All the overspray hit the plastic and there was no mess. There are dead trees everywhere that need painting.

‪Throwing Paint

A kinetic experiment I performed with some leftover paint in the parking lot of Artists for Humanity.

‪Sidewalk Snidesnark

Snidesnarks are places around Boston that are not friendly to pedestrians, but my pavement markings say otherwise.
