A Place for Writing, 1983-1984

 File — Box: OSxx-1, Folder: 4

Scope and Contents

This first year project consisted of three plates: a series of context photos arranged in a grid, a plan study, and a loose perspective drawing (the perspective is not included here). Pellino's intention was to express the tension between memory (embodied in both the written word and the site, which held personal significance for him), the ephemeral nature of constructed environments, and the sense that "over time all writing, all memory and all building will disappear."
