Eco-logicalART has just reveived over $26,000 in grants for Project ReStore! THANK YOU the VINYL INSTITUTE, LIA FUND and THE LOS ANGELES NEIGHBORHOOD INITIATIVE
for your generous support.
Eco- Logical ART is pleased to announce the launch of Project ReStore. The youth public art project features canvases made from recycled billboard vinyl. The material, typically thrown into landfills by the ton monthly, is stretched onto hard frames measuring 4 x 8 feet. By putting modules together the panel system can produce large, but easily installed exterior mural exhibits.
Project ReStore continues Eco-LA's commitment to art, recycling and recovery. Display venues will be in blighted neighborhoods and on the facades of unrented storefronts. Conceived as month long “pop-up” installations the works will add new energy to tired and seemingly forgotten streets. The exhibits will also help mitigate graffiti, plus offer business owners-- existing on the block, and those trying to rent their locations, a fresh look.
Project ReStore allows for large areas of a neighborhood to get visual relief. And by being in multiple locations, sponsors and underwriters get maximum exposure for their support. The works can also be brought together to form the focus for unique and engaging public art walks and street festivals.
Project ReStore images will be bold, engaging and accessible. Many of the works will be “"paint by number" simple so that school kids and community groups can create them with a good level of execution. The pieces can be produced over time or more spontaneously at street fairs, farmer’s markets, art walks and neighborhood outreach events.
We at Eco- Logical ART are excited by the potential of Project ReStore. We hope that our vision becomes yours. Beyond the good diversion of waste from landfills, we see more important levels of up-cycling in the future; that being youth; re-inspired, neighborhoods; renewed, and a return of something simpler. The recovery of hope.
