Digital and printed promotional materials seeking artists for Van Alen Institute’s Common Build: Gowanus. The winner will be tasked with creating a lighting installation that serves as a “gateway” to Gowanus.

Worked with Cooper Square Committee to create a window display for multiple vacant storefronts that highlighted the history of Housing Development Fund Corporations (a type of affordable housing co-op that’s collectively owned and operated by residents)  and the small businesses situated in them. Echoing the visual language of these vacant spaces, the display was composed entirely of Kraft paper and masking tape. It was accompanied by a newsprint publication and other printed materials.
