The Philpott Lake Project

Information

I came across almost 50 unused postcards of an unfortunate looking lake in Virginia at a junk shop yesterday and I think they have potential.

I was hoping that I could send them out to any interested artist, they could alter them as they see fit, send them back to me, and I could publish the responses in any format the group would like. Maybe I could scan them and create a Tumblr page?

No restrictions on the medium or content, first 47 responses, and I will publish as we go.

I am open to any and all suggestions.

I am also a new member, so please correct and forgive me if I don't understand quite how things work yet. Participants will be sent a piece of art from me as well.

I believe I only sent my entry as a JPG file. Should I send you a print also?

Y'r ol' Bud, Fike

Comment by Diana Hale on October 29, 2015 at 1:36pm: Good News! We have been offered space at Piedmont Virginia Community College for a Philpott Lake Project exhibition. The exhibit will take place in September 2016 and of course, you are all invited to attend. I will post more info as it becomes available, but here is a little preview of the space.

Comment by David Repunto on October 8, 2015 at 1:15am: Cool project!

Comment by Ficus strangulensis on September 24, 2015 at 12:56pm: Hello, Diana.

The image exists only in digits.

BTW, it is quite distinct because the dreamed images were re-submitted to Google Deep Dream multiple times, The one you see is a 4th generation.

Y'r ol' Bud,

Fike
