I ran across Itizen recently, “a place to tell, share & follow the life stories of interesting things”. The way it works is you can order sticker tags which have a code number on them (some also have a QR Code), put them on anything register that item & code and tell that objects’ story. Naturally the first thing I thought of was putting a sticker on a painting & hope that someone writes about their experience living with that painting. In an economy where purchasing a painting is not a common priority, I think this could be a fun way to live with art (for a week) & then pass it along for someone else to enjoy. I have 3 small square paintings to pass along with instructions on the back,
The story starts HERE:
If you have one of these paintings passed along to you please take a minute to write about your week & then pass it along to a friend.
The experiment will conclude August 1st 2011, if you have a painting on this date please email me dana@danamjohnson.com, if I can track them down I’d like pay to ship them back.
