Lot 19 Times is a strategy to rewrite the plot of farmland (Lot 19 on official LaSalle maps) that is destined to become run of the mill suburban neighborhood. Residential development is quite possibly the least creative use for this prime real estate. In response to this, and in an attempt to regain control over the doomed landscape, I propose 19 separate uses for the land. Each proposal is written on greenhouse plastic, which I have stretched over faux antique flats that I have constructed. Inside each flat is an aerial map of the land in question. The proposals are based on the oral history of the land.
Note: "Dot, dot, dot... 19" allows gallery visitors to enter their own suggestions into a computer interface. See results here.
