Hiding Place

My old friend (and the designer of the Lux Lotus flower-launching-stars logo) Jes Cannon, has just announced the publication of Hiding Place. a book of public art projects.

It's described as follows: "Hiding Place features ideas designed to tap into the popular imagination. It is the first book created by Brooklyn-based artist, Jes Cannon. Cannon's projects are concerned with access, nature, and desire in the social sphere. They exist in quiet opposition to the majority of images created and distributed in the public realm. Some of the projects have been realized and others still exist as propositions. There is no harm in imagining."

The book retails for less than twenty dollars, and can be purchased online.

The image above is from Night Swim, "an installation for a public pool or aquarium... [that]... provides the sensation that one is swimming through space."
