If I had to propose a large scale public art project for metropolitan Detroit without thinking of the budget then I would expand the art project in more areas. The first thing I think of this project that it belongs in Downtown Detroit; In its own space. This project is about a huge scale screen that is definitely flat and thin (almost like a television screen). This screen will feature a variation of images created by artists and on weekends by people of the community; they can share their art and feel they are part of this project. The images will actually move so it will create a sense that it is alive.
The images must have an action because the screen will spray people with water. Therefore, the water should be part of the story presented in each image. The change of images and contribution of residents within community, will keep people wanting to come back so they can enjoy being sprayed and also see the new image. The water can change colors depending on colors of image; this also allows people to experience something new everyday.
Since this project has no budget, then I can include another screen with the same idea, but instead throws paint and plays music. I can as well consider including a smaller version of this project in parks. My project is fun and entertaining; it is designed for all ages and for families to spend time together. This idea will attract tourists and people anxious to see it. This project can't get old and boring because there is always a new image with different colors and music. Also, the screen only plays twice daily for about an hour each. I seen a similar idea as mine before, but my project has variety and extras. I think this will definitely be an amazing art project for Detroit and it will succeed.
