THE FEED
Recently my husband, Scott Warren, interviewed Artist Anthony Pesi regarding his latest project, “1024 bits of you and me”. Pesi’s works are usually small scale, this concept where he generates a collection of 1,024 tiles assembled into one large comprehensive design is an ambitious endeavor for him – for any artist. To top it all off, he is also publishing a book composed of the individual works. Pesi mentioned he thought it would be difficult to come up with 1024 words on his own. That is how he came up with the idea of collaboration. Each sponsor has the right to name a tile with a word or phrase that will be the subject of the tile. Once the project is completed, patrons will receive the individual tile that they funded as a reward for their sponsorship. .Each 5”x 5” tile is a unique piece of art, when viewed from a distance, the series of panels will create a 35 foot long installation.
Disclosure: I contributed to the project by purchasing a panel, its really cool!
