UN(REAL) CITYSCAPE | Capp Larsen

Residency

Capp Larsen activated the Elsewhere screen print station and held screen printing workshops during museum open hours, at the farmer's market, and First Fridays. After getting the screen print station set up Capp created UN(REAL) CITYSCAPE, a multi-layered screen print of drawings overlaid on historical maps bordering Elsewhere’s Living Library and Aviary. Travel to a new city and find a fictionalized reality of the streets you walk and the buildings you pass everyday. Re-imagine the built landscape of Greensboro and the City of Elsewhere.

Capp Larsen lives in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Larsen's a screen printer and instructor who especially enjoys creating art with youth. She is also a member of Books Beyond Bars, a library program with women in prison, and helps to publish their works of poetry, writing, and art. Much of her own artistic work focuses on the themes of distance, communication, place, cities, mapping and urban planning. She hopes to engage critically and creatively with her surroundings and is constantly seeking fuel for the fire in order to keep up the fight. She's happiest walking with her dog in the woods and diving off things into water.
