The origins and motivation of the sub-culture of skateboarding have always supported individuality, creativity both through design and the physical, alternate thinking, questioning the norm with a bit of anarchy. Skate design can range from boards with layers of rough worn stickers to elegant engineering but always the potential for energy-fueled action and a bit of a revolutionary spirit.

I consider these qualities to also define an artistic practice. For this exhibit, I invited and in some cases commissioned, these artists to interpret the world of skateboarding with ingenuity, whimsy, and their unique style. Some used traditional art tools, a brush and paint, camera lens, fabric, and ceramic, while in some cases, a couple of wheels and a piece of wood.

This exhibit explores what 28 artists are thinking, doing, not doing, working on, avoiding, accomplishing and postponing. From December 1, 2014 - January 15, 2015, all artists were instructed to use a work from a limited edition mono print/two run screen print made by Dunphy at Double Dutch Press as his or her to-do list, post-it, stickies, doodle page, inspiration notes, date book, planner and note paper.
