"white wall growth"
As an emerging artist, finding funds to accomplish large projects like WWgrowth is difficult. I create proposal pages like this to try to help raise money for the individual project, and at least putting the idea out there. You may be so keen on the idea you would want to fund the project yourself, or help in other ways. I look for funding from grants and fellowships, business sponsors and individual donations. You can see below how much money this project has raised so far, and how much I need before I can begin. This project explains the concept behind the project, how much it will cost, where it would ideally be on display, and how much time it will take to complete. The images below are an growing series of samples that I using to help propose the idea to sponsors.
White Wall Growth
"WW growth" stands for white wall growth and is a sculptural art project by william hessian. During the future exhibition of "WW growth" the mundane white walls of the gallery have started mutating and melting, oozing and growing out into the galleries. The typical art has left for safe ground, or been consumed by these massive sculptures that are extensions of the white walls they have grown from. Sculptures will be as large as 15 feet in the air, completely white and organic. The one sample, shows an organic growth pouring out of a white frame, however most of the works will be growing straight out of the walls, like a cancer, mutation or goiter. Other works will be a puddle on the base of the wall, or horn like structures growing like a colony of infestations.
