From the Artist: Inside the Scaffolding
August 22nd, 2008Jason Peters has been here all week, working on the installation of his artwork in the grassy lot across the street from the Pulitzer. He brought me some photos that he and his crew have taken throughout the week:
Here’s a view from inside the scaffolding:

Prepping buckets in the workshop:
Jason has promised a blog post in the near future about this process and the buckets’ past life. He also discusses them a bit with Matt Strauss (who curated this artwork) in their interview on the Light Project web catalogue here.
Yesterday, they started putting up the first string of buckets. We got a video of the action, but it’s being problematic right now. I’ll add it in when it stops giving me lip.
More details (and the latest updates) for Jason’s work continue to be documented here.
