Philadelphia-based multimedia artist Candy Coated (formerly Candy Depew) teaches participants how to screen print using design motifs from Magic Carpet, the artist's new public artwork being featured at The Oval from July 16 - August 17, 2014.
Commissioned by the Association for Public Art for The Oval - an initiative of Philadelphia Parks & Recreation and Fairmount Park Conservancy - Magic Carpet will transform the space into a magical environment of color, pattern, illusion, and movement. Her exhuberant design will include 3-D illusion art, brilliantly colored sandboxes, and her signature decorative motifs rendered in vinyl, among other attractions.
