About
Presented by the NY- and LA-based fine art studio,. DANIELLE, the artwork is an enamel and vinyl billboard (48” x 96”), standing next to a busy avenue in a location where the ocean breached the shore during Hurricane Sandy in 2012. Painted entirely on the now empty ocean-front site, it recreates the surrounding environment and captures the luminescent and intersecting forces of sky and ocean, overlaid with the word “monster” in Japanese, emerging on the shore like Godzilla. As the viewers move around the billboard and the light moves across it, the word "monster" appear or disappear.
