80/35 2016


80/35 was a live music festival that took place on the 8th and 9th of July in Des Moines, IA. Brian Nance, Dan Nutt and Sarah Jarnagin collaborated to create a 4x8 ft mural durring the festival. The Work was commissioned by Young Professionals Connection (YPC). it was to be hung in the board room of the YPC. 

After the festival I got no response from the YPC about what had happened to the art piece. Until the 27th of July when I was informed that they had no idea what happened to the painting. while at first I was initially upset that the painting had gone missing, I still saw a silver lining. The Work may have been commissioned for a board room, but perhaps it was better suited for this disappearing act. I don’t know if that makes sense? but is there not romance in the impermanence of the art piece, and its cycle of creation to drift out into the ether.
