And the word is...

...Chair. Seriously, how could 10,000 people be inspired by the word "chair"? But I guess they were, including me (or at least if not so much the chair itself, by the negative space, shapes and shadows around the chair). You can check out some of the submissions for the project. The opening for The 10,000 People Project will be in Atlanta, Georgia at the Art House Gallery on Dec 11th from 7-10pm. There will also be a book published with 1000 of the entries.

Powerful painting, Ariel. Chair is not the first thing you think when you see it--very industrial. I like the palette for this, too. Very cool!

Thank you for your comments. This is one of the junk chairs sitting outside in the yard at LibertyTown.
