Picture Yourself

Installation Details

Picture Yourself is a Socially Engaged installation conceived by Phoenix Artist, Ann Morton, after considering the phrase, “It’s what’s on the inside that counts.”

Throughout the months of February and March, patrons of Postino Gilbert have drawn images – doodles, symbols, likenesses – anything that they feel represents who they are. The nearly seven hundred drawings were then laminated, linked together and  installed as banners on the lawn of Postino as a kind of catalog of our own perceptions of ourselves.Picture Yourself creates a fun, safe space for visually identifying with other members of the community.

This artwork was commissioned by the Town of Gilbert.
