Arts Project Grant Award

Picture
This project is funded by grants from the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance

The project will engage the general public to participate in art creation by inviting them to write words that convey personal significance for them, and then incorporates the collected handwriting in the creation of art objects that convey metaphoric implications such as "Talking Door”, “Talking Lantern", and "Community Kites"

The project was created by Yu-Ru Huang in 2006. For the FY2014 Art’s Project grant Yu-Ru Huang will collaborate with David Tsai (3D design), Theresa Munisteri (English editing) and various professionals for the following scope of services.

*The project was supported in part by Houston and Harris County in 2006 and by the city of Houston through the Houston Arts Alliance in 2011 and 2014. It has been featured in Houston’s annual citizenship month, the Texan French Alliance for the Arts, and various art projects for presentations in non-commercial venues.

Scope of Services involves the interaction at "Talking Door", the design of a Talking Lantern, 100 Kites, a catalog and copies of flyers.
