Acrylic gold mirror, sign structure (metal, acrylic, fluorescent lights) - 2013

Wish You Were Here is an illuminated portable billboard that was positioned outside in front of the Art Gallery of Ontario. The text reflects benign greeting card sentiments created at a scale that is relatively monumental. This project responds to the physical and atmospheric environment of the Art Gallery while exploring visual art’s ongoing engagement with language and it’s relationship between reason and imagination.
