PROJECT DETAILS
 

This is a project I've been conceptualizing ever since I finished Art Battle back in February this year, where I got to paint live in front of an energized and engaged audience. I wanted to bring this energy to an urban scale, and the adspace along Toronto construction sites that we're so desensitized to felt like the perfect opportunity for this performance.

I'll be painting over the text on the artwork that you've seen in the emails and social posts (also shown below for reference) to transform each ad into a unique work of art. The artwork is of my beautiful fiance, painting using a hybrid traditional and digital technique, and each poster will receive a unique floral arrangement painted with premium grade artist's material. 

By nature, this form of advertising is temporary, so I'm inviting you to come watch any of the 8 events (6 main events, 1 bonus, 1 practice) and come watch a moment in Toronto happen live!
