The Peabody Essex Museum needs ten artists to make two huge murals for Michael Lin‘s FreePort project. Back in the late 1990s, Lin began enlarging ornamental fabric designs in architectural installations and has since created murals all over the world. Sometimes his installations provide new functions – café, discussion platform, or skateboard park. Other times, they simply bring a sense of play to existing functional spaces like the walls and floors of museums, exhibition spaces, and other public buildings.
day, 5 days a week from February 28 to March 4, 2012.
Unfortunately, the museum’s website doesn’t mention a stipend, but since the position is listed in the Employment section rather than the Internship or Volunteer sections, I hope they are offering some kind of compensation.
