Bioneers’ Art on the Street
Monday, May 19th, 2008
Great Lakes Bioneers took to the streets, entering a Street Art contest hosted by the InsideOut Gallery this past weekend. Joining a line up of taggers who primarily used cans of spray paint for their designs, we filled our canvas with layers of old Bioneer propoganda and other interesting images and headlines. Using ancient paper mache technology, we plastered it all up with wheat paste - actually organic whole wheat paste. Delicious!
While there is no doubt that our piece was not “hip and cool”, we did have fun using art as a medium for engaging youth about Bioneers. Turns out, it’s pretty easy to get a person to ask, “What’s a Bioneer?”
