14 // Overflowing Optimism

Main & King Edward St.

There is a small mini plaza with a few shops and restaurants on Main, near King Ed. There's one particular sign that's been used many times to advertise. I knew that I wanted my piece to go there, next to the random concert and club flyers.

The sentiment, "Overflowing Optimism", comes from this photograph. Not only do I agree with the message, but I also think that it's true that once you start thinking positively, you just can't stop it from coming.

I created this piece with construction paper and a never ending loop of swirls.
