BILLBOARD PROJECT | Jessica Bushey | Google Oracle Series

1000 Block East Hastings Overpass near Glen Drive, Vancovuer BC.

February - March 2021

Picture
The first Billboard of 2021 is featuring the striking new body of work by Jessica Bushey.

The Google-Oracle 2020 series presents a chronological progression of our global experience of COVID-19 through captures of the most popular searches from around the world. Plexiglass and "disposable-mask blue" ink recall the prominent artifacts of the period. For our Billboard Project we chose 4 out of the series of 9 unique works, as a reminder you are not alone in this pandemic.

The billboard is located in Strathcona, the same neighborhood where the gallery is located.

The Billboard Project extends the public’s access to local artists and treats viewers to approachable, yet thought-provoking contemporary art on the billboard.


Jessica Bushey | Declarations (2017)

​Declarations are text-based works that draw upon What's App exchanges that reveal the early stages of cross-cultural flirtation. Combining different mobile applications to translate, send and receive texts, Bushey explores how identities are formed and seduction is conducted within the limitations of specific technologies. Bushey is interested in the slippage that occurs and the poetry that emerges. The body of work includes 30 translated declarations, which are embossed in gold charms and also available through a mobile subscription service for a period of one month enabling the collector to experience the thrill of seduction.
