In this episode of the Tape Art Convention Podcast Leah Smith and Michael Townsend from the Tape Art Crew tell us about the origins of Tape Art, their approach to educational and collaborative art and how they come up with new creative ideas.
The Tape Art movement originated in Providence, Rhode Island in 1989 in the form of large-scale, collaborative drawings created in public spaces. The original Tape Art Crew continues to pioneer and evolve this medium and over the last 30 years they have produced over 500 public works and thousands of smaller drawings in locations around the globe.
