Unwrap

WPA member artist Anita Walsh transformed the office into a room-sized installation of color and memory. This interactive project asked participants to type their memories of specific colors onto paper that were hand made by the artist from old crayon wrappers; these personal recollections became collaborative works which are then attached to the walls of the installation. 

ABOUT COUP D’ESPACE

Coup d’Espace is WPA’s member-generated programming series. By inviting member artists and curators to plan installations, exhibitions, and events in its office project space, WPA provides a venue for unusual collaborations, exploration of new concepts, and the production of new and experimental work. Coup d’Espace allows artists and curators to utilize the WPA office as a laboratory or workshop space, to introduce new and in-process projects and present challenging ideas.
