The Original Artifact

Work in Progress: 10 Artists/10 Objects

Roger McKee October 7, 2017

This is an invitational show to be held at the Hotchkiss School, in Lakeville, CT.  Deadline for completion of the work is January 5, 2018, which seems like a long time away, but I'm sure it will rush by.  The idea behind the show is that each artist will chose an item in the Hotchkiss School collection and respond to it in some way.  I have chosen an art student's 'tool kit', with paints and brushes and mediums.

I've decided to build a personal toolbox, which displays as a tryptich when open but is modeled after a wall-hung tool cabinet.
