Project Overview

This piece, called "The Playwright" by Paige Brown, was an interactive sculpture designed for the user to expose preferred, and otherwise hidden, images from a selection of colorful options in order to build and share a unique narrative. Brown's vision for the piece was to build community connection through storytelling.

The Playwright appeared at Community Art Day and the [Placeholder] Festival, two art-centric events in 2023.

The piece was part of the Office of Arts + Culture's Experiments in Public Art program. We partnered with Farm to Spaceship, a local accelerator program "that pairs local artists, designers, foodies, scientists, businesses, entrepreneurs, engineers, and community leaders to develop experiential offerings that are good for the community and exciting to customers."
