#intotheground

Friends & fellow earthlings! Me & @audrey_snyder are selling these letterpress prints we made in support of our upcoming project, titled “Into the Ground” at @socratespark for the 2018-19 Emerging Artist Fellowship. Twenty-five bones gets a 12.5 x 18” print flat-packed and shipped to you, or you can scoop one in person for $20. All proceeds go toward supporting our work for #EAF18, specifically materials for a series of workshops we are organizing to take place throughout the summer ~~ stay tuned for more info. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You can purchase prints via the link in my bio or Venmo to @pleasedontfront (include shipping info). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ “Into the ground” reflects on processes through which urban ecologies uptake and transform contaminants, and collective bodies realize agency through ground-up organizing. The project forms around the likeness of a covered car, to be dyed with a solution of discarded, oxidized materials during a series of workshops and ceremonies. These assemblies call on visibility and invisibility of discarded objecthood: is it an abandoned vehicle or a public monument? A rusted relic or a deliberate composition? A landfill or a park? ALSO! We are seeking rust metals, car parts, or discarded steel odds and end for the taking in the NYC area. Please give a shout if you are up fo joining the scavenging. And please buy a print or pass on the word if you can! #socratessculpturepark #TheSocratesAnnual #IntoTheGround #weareintotheground #letterpress #woodtype #letterpressprinting #printmaking #printsforsale #wastestreams #fieldwork #audreysnyder #joeriley #socrates

Sunday Sunday Sunday! Please join me & @audrey_snyder for a slow-motion demo derby of “Into the ground” 3-5p during the closing party for the #SocratesAnnual at @socratespark. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ From 330-430 we will present “Along for the ride,” a collaborative performance with @alaxawast @tylerberrier and Tenaya Kelleher unfolding our car-like installation. Over the course of one hour, performers will peel-back the rust-dyed cover of “Into the ground” to reveal the steel armature underneath. Come kick the tires of this rust bucket with us one last time!⁣ ⁣⁣ #joeriley #audreysnyder #intotheground #weareintotheground #socratessculpturepark #thesocratesannual #eaf18 #socratesannual18 #socratespark (at Socrates Sculpture Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvSJTcUlr_f/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12jt8hactbrjc
