City of Gold & Sun Disks Floating Museum feature

July 18, 2018

In 2017 Alleyne ART was a featured artist on The Floating Museum project created by a collaboration of Chicago-area artists of the same name. The floating Museum began life at SkyArt on the South Side of Chicago in late June, then moved to Pilsen's "Bubbly Creek", floated down the Chicago River to the Riverwalk at Wacker & Clark Street and ended as an installation during Art Expo at Navy Pier in August. Its aquatic journey aboard an industrial barge “pays homage to the Chicago River’s industrial past,” according an announcement from the group. Each artist was responsible for designing a crate representing the early museum's containers of curiosity. Alleyne ART designed a crate with several collages from the City of Gold series on the interior and Sun Disks mounted to the crate spray painted entirely in metallic gold. A golden motorcycle tire mounted to the outside of the crate was quite striking.
