Visit to Park City- April

I spent a few days in Park City, collecting stories for an upcoming permanent art piece that will be installed in the Park City Public Library's Entry Hall.

What are these stories for?

Curious about the final piece? What all these stories are for? Here's a brief snippet from the project proposal, and a sketch of what the final outcome may look like!

"In recognition of how we collect information, internalize knowledge, and how this collection, as well as our community, composes our understandings of ourselves and surroundings, I propose to create a multi-media mountain-scape for the Entry Hall to the Library Center. This piece will consist of approximately twenty panels of screenprinted text and 300 hanging recycled metal discs to greet visitors of Park City Library and to encourage investigation and curiosity"

The screen printed text on the panels will be comprised of stories from the residents of Park City who would like to share. You can share your story about Park City by using any of the options listed at the bottom of this blog!

Here's a message from Danielle Wyckoff on the facebook page...

I will be arriving tomorrow evening and will be posting on this page (facebook.com/PleaseTellMeAStoryAbout) the places where I'll station myself to collect stories. Two on the top of my list: Kimball Art Center and the Park City Library. Any other suggestions would be helpful!
