Description
Title: Lunenburg House Paint Project.Collected Paint on board.
Artist's Notes: Wood has been used to build both the homes and the boats in the Town of Lunenburg and the people of this community know the value of paint as a preservative. In 2014 the artist began working on the conceptual art piece called the Lunenburg House Paint Project. He engaged with residents and business owners in Lunenburg, going door -to-door collecting paints from the buildings. Using only the collected paint, Maize created a painted visual record of the colours of buildings and homes in Old Town Lunenburg, installed based on the rectangular grid layout of this British colonial settlement that still exists today and for which the Town of Lunenburg received UNESCO world-heritage status. This piece was part of that project.
