This digitally created, ASCII-like, 30' x 7' mural of vinyl text
installed on a glass wall was originally commissioned by United States
Artists for their offices. United States Artists is an organization
created to identify and support American artists, providing around 50
fellowships yearly. California Pastoral creates a large-scale image of
lush foliage out of 1/2" tall text abbreviations of the 50 states. The
work provides a layer of privacy to the USA offices, as well as a
dramatic backdrop to the front workspaces. The USA offices were designed
by Pablo Maida Architect.
Exhibited in the California Design Biennial at the Pasadena Museum of
California Art. 08.19.07-09.30.07
