#1 (17 Chips); #2 (14 Chips); #3 (12 Chips); #4 (18 Chips); #5 (11 Chips)

Five Posters. 18″x24″ each. Shown chronologically, from left to right.

Process: Each poster was created by dropping twenty plastic chips, each 1.5in onto paper. The Paper was dusted with spraypaint to record where the chips fell. If any of the Chips fell off the paper, they were not recorded. Using the sprayed paper as a template, blue translucent vinyl dots were placed on the final papers.

They are shown here in the order I found them, clockwise from top. Where I was, which shops were open, and even which shops were out of business cards.5 business cards
