Oooh!\u00a0This is “Packed”<\/em>, a cardboard wonderland by American artist Nicki Crock<\/a>… and look, I think a few of the neighbors are home! Here is Nicki’s description of this beautiful pile of suburbia:<\/p>\n

“‘Packed’ is a topsy-turvy investigation into the architecture, accumulation, and curious atmosphere of suburbia. An expansive landscape of tumbled track housing made from utilitarian cardboard, piqued by pockets of fantasy. Conveying the duality of a curious, beautiful, engineered neighborhood.<\/em><\/p>\n

In order to complete my investigation of this cardboard community, I turned my own talented community of artists to help me create several of the fantasy interiors. Packed includes artistic contributions from Alexis Zabor, Mark Eberhardt<\/a>, Nick Stull<\/a>, Liz Morrison<\/a>, Miriam Chon<\/a>, Laurie Ihlenfield <\/a>and Alex Conrad<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Three of Nicki’s projects – “Packed”<\/em><\/a>, “Paper Interventions”<\/em><\/a>, and her stunning\u00a0“Dream House”<\/em><\/a>\u00a0installation\u00a0{which I’ve written about before<\/a>}<\/em> are debuting this Saturday, October 5th<\/strong>, at the Springfield Museum of Art<\/a> in Springfield, Ohio.
