The Billboard Art Project Chicago, IL / “Mileage To”

| micheleguieu

Group show / Public Art
September 26 to October 23, 2011

“Mileage To” (Chicago) is a series of 31 faux road signs giving drivers the exact distance from Chicago to various cities of political importance in the Middle East and Africa (Afghanistan, Iraq, Israel, Lebanon, West Bank, Egypt, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Ethiopia, Sudan, Pakistan, Nigeria, Jordan, United Arab Emirates, Syria). In the midst of the Arab Spring, my intention with the road sign look-alike is to use familiar navigation aids to give people more concrete information about the geo-political world in which we live.
