Selling Field or Similar Work

Here are images of the project Laura and I worked on this June at Elsewhere in Greensboro, NC. This description is taken from our project page:

"Selling Field or Similar Work by Meghan Macdonald and Laura MacAulay explored the portrait of Sylvia Gray drawn by her paper archives. Collecting business letters, romantic postcards, doodles, and random scraps they invited people to help them recreate these papers to scale on rolls of paper that were then used to paper the back stairwell walls. Several lights added to the stair’s risers further serve to illuminate their representation of this previously hidden archive."

Thank you to all of our helpful re-recorders for your labours with pen and paper and to Samantha Harthoorn for capturing the process.
