Got word from M (director-curator) at the UNB Art Centre at the University of New Brunswick today. The show is a go ahead for 2022. Both projects will be featured, THE FAMILIES OF THE DUMP and THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE UNDER THE FREEWAY. Each project will have its own room, and the rooms are large, at least in my limited exhibiting experience. The rooms measure about 7. 2 meters (23.7 feet) x 9.5 meters ( 31 feet) and 7 meters (23 feet) x 11.9 meters (38.9 feet). That is a lot of wall space to cover with photographs!
M suggested I send her the digital files when they are ready and she will print them to 44" tall x proportional length. So that means for the horizontal shots (which there are many) the short side will be 44 inches tall, the longer rectangle of the horizontal shot will be that much bigger! M suggests we will need 15 -16 photos per project, per gallery room. So that means there will be 15-16 THE FAMILIES OF THE DUMP and 15-16 THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE UNDER THE FREEWAY photographs printed, mounted on board and exhibited! So that makes 30 or 32 LARGE LARGE prints.
Exciting times! I have never seen the photographs I make printed that big before.
The 2 photos below are samples sent from the Art Centre of what the large prints might look like on display.
Note* One gallery room has 4 walls, the other 3.5 walls, for artwork.
Note** The top photo has Edward Burtynsky photos on display, I think!
