Papergirl Portland from abraham ingle on Vimeo

In 2009, Abraham Ingle brought Berlin’s Papergirl Project to Portland. Over 200 pieces of original 2d art were displayed in a gallery, then rolled up, and distributed via bicycle to randomly selected people on the streets of Portland.

“Neighborhood Diaries is the culmination of a project from Portland artist Abe Ingle to create audio tours of Portland based in individual memories. Visitors to this event at NW Documentary can contribute to the project by recording their own personalized neighborhood tours on the spot.”

In 2009 I partnered with Papergirl in Berlin to bring Papergirl to Portland.

Over 200 original works of art were donated to the project.

In September the art was shown at the Second Nature Gallery.

In October, some awesome people and  I rode through the streets of Portland on bicycles, distributing the donated art at random to people on the street.

so much fun, right?

Stay tuned…
