The Project
The July Transplants, a group of six mixed media artists, will transform a vacant lot on Northwestern Ave into a collaboratively curated site-specific installation. The July Transplants recently relocated to Austin from the cities of Baltimore, Milwaukee, Chicago, and San Diego. As we circumnavigate our new home and learn the visual language of the Austin landscape we are captivated observers. The homes, sidewalks, fences and trees are riddled with messages and stories. The vacant lot will be used a context for new work by the six emerging artists.
Mali V
Mali Margaret Voglund is an interdisciplinary artist interested in the history of the American west. Themes of manifest destiny and distortion of historical facts into folklore are presented through drawing, sculpture and video. Mali plans to exhibit extraordinarily large saw-horses and a video montage of gun battles from old westerns.
Bridget Q
Bridget Quinn a mixed media artist fascinated by the way our desires become evident in landscape. Our desire to connect with one another reveals itself in many ways including the rhythmic electric and telephone lines that dot the landscape and compete with church steeples for our devotion. In the vacant lot on Northwestern Ave Bridget plans to create a sculptural fable using instead of animals the imagery of construction equipment interacting with each other.
