Wave to a Stranger by Brad Wicklund

 

Your Art Here presents Wave to a Stranger by artist Brad Wicklund for the Massachusetts Ave. Billboard Project. The billboard will be mounted June 2006.

Artwork Statement

Every human being has a unique story to tell that is influenced by his or her own experiences and perspectives on reality. Despite this individuality we are all inextricably linked. Even our most mundane actions, when repeated daily or by many people, can have global ramifications. My recent work illustrates those moments when the tension between the personal and universal becomes noticeable by forcing the observer to consider his or her own relationship to a larger community.
