Call to Artists to crochet, knit, stitch, quilt, or
patch 3 foot square fiber panels. The topic to be
represented is your countries extreme dependency on
oil for energy. Your panel need not contain an image
or be a literal portrayal of your idea. Simply by
designing and creating a panel of any colors and any
fiber technique and participating in this project you
are, in the larger picture, expressing your concern
about this important subject to the rest of the world.
The design of the panel does not necessarily have
to directly reflect the topic; self-expression is left
up to the artist. Relief on panels is encouraged and
all panels will be accepted.
THERE IS NO ENTRY FEE
Panels and entry forms must be received no later than
March 15, 2008.
Mail to:
Jennifer Marsh, Syracuse University, Comart Building,
1055 Comstock Road, Syracuse, New York, 13244, USA
Once 800 panels are received from around the world
they will be assembled together to create a large
fitted covering to completely envelop an abandoned gas
station in central New York. Separate panels will be
crocheted to cover the detached gas pumps.
Installation will take place Saturday April 12,
2008
