Have Substantial Student Loan Debt?

Student Loan Debt Art Project by the Foster Collective's Lead Organizer, Angela Watters.

Call for Participation:

I'm looking for people with significant student loan debt from art related college or university programs to mail or email me the amount of debt along with their name, the program attended, what subject was studied and the degree (if any) obtained from the institution. Please don't send sensitive information like social security numbers or birth dates. This information will be collaged on to the outside of a dollhouse I bought for $5 at a flea market. The dollhouse will be exhibited and for sale for the amount of our collective student loan debt. The call for participation will continue for a year or until we reach the highest selling work by a living artist, which is (depending on who you believe) either Damien Hirst's For the Love of God or Jasper Johns' False Start. I will need your real name for administrative purposes, but if you wish to remain anonymous or use a pseudonym for the public viewing just let me know. Creativity is encouraged, but unnecessary. If you wish to contribute artwork to be shown with the project or write something about your crushing debt problem, please let me know. I've not yet decided on a name for the project, but am thinking The Poor House or The ? Million Dollar Home.
