yellow #6 doodles
cheese puffs, napkins, napkin dispenser, push pins
by Sebastien Leclecq, Ted Houghtaling, Rebecca Hoenig, & myself
This is my group's piece for the show Offerings at Little Berlin. These shots were taken at the beginning of the opening before people really got creative with their additions to the wall. I look forward to sharing those soon. The project invited 80+ Philadelphian artists to work collaborative in a group with people they did not know prior to the project. My group met consistently(ish) for about six weeks from the onset of the ten week project compiling lists of ideas and possibilities for our completed projects. For me, the discussion was more exciting than the actual completion of the project and I would leave every week convincing myself that none of the ideas would actually pan out... When the deadline felt like it was actually approaching, we were able to focus and draw from our discussions the final project. Interactivity was something we played around with quite a bit - the idea that we four were collaborating and inviting the viewer to collaborate as well.
Yellow #6 doodles invites the viewer to snack on the irresistable cheese-coated puffs and then add their own orange mark to the pre-drawn napkins, which show a multitude of things that are typically orange in color. The viewers become artists when they tack their newly-made creations to the wall.
Many thanks to Martha Savery and Alex Gartlemann of Little Berlin who curated and organized this show/project!
