Exact scope, approach and timeline of fly is contingent upon outcome of Innovative Grant. If funding doesn’t come through, those funds
will be supplemented by funding from the base public art project, replacing
birdbox post project with artist providing more of a
community-liaison/artist-residency approach.
If the grant comes through, the artist will provide infrastructure as
originally-planned. Given all the
unknowns at this point and the need to coordinate outreach efforts with
multiple organizations (related to school academic years), exact end date for
installation of this piece are to be determined.
Exact approach and timeline of flow is similarly contingent upon a potential collaboration with a
local photographer. If an agreed
esthetic approach with a local photographer can be developed, there’s an
additional 2 months built into the timeline to allow for their photographic
work. Otherwise I will obtain suitable
stock photography through an image bank with an earlier installation date.
All timelines noted here are estimates based on assumptions
about several factors that are beyond the artist’s control (timely reviews,
community collaborations, invoice turnaround, subcontractor performance,
etc). While the desire is to complete
the work in a timely and efficient manner, since we aren’t under a base project
coordination deadline, patience is the watchword…and, as always, quality in all
it’s immeasurable aspects is the ultimate arbiter.
