lead pencil studio: non-sign II



‘non-sign II’ is an installation by seattle based art collective lead pencil studio located at the canada-US border
near vancouver. the sculpture is made from small stainless steel rods that are assembled together to create the
negative space of a billboard. while most billboards draw attention away from the landscape ‘non-sign II’
frames the landscape, focusing attention back on it.

@ Dan

Really? I feel like "the presence of that other thing over there" is what CREATES the void.

Touchdown!
Bog   12.04.10
As to the concern for the birds flying into this and getting impailed, they are not as stupid as you might think. They are more likely to nest in this which would add to the sculpture's beauty.
