Goals
The primary goal of this project was to address the theme of Nobel Laureates within the work itself.
Process
I worked with art consultant Dorka Keehn on the initial project proposal. Once approved, I collected handwriting samples from dozens of Nobel Laureates. The work was fabricated by JunoWorks in Denver, Colorado.
