Youth Harvest Paint for Their Jewelry with Rebel Nell at TAP
The physical part of Rebel Nell’s process of jewelry making begins with the procurement of paint from a range of surfaces.
For years The Alley Project has welcomed Rebel Nell to visit and to learn histories as layered as the paint they will work with. They eventually select surfaces and harvest paint from the alley, among other places, to make jewelry with.
This year, the youth get to join in as they learn how to make their own jewelry. And this particular surface is special. It is the garage door from a mural in 2011 by Pherz which was painted over several years of activities, sharing time, building relationships and art through painting for the completion and opening of Studio Luevanos and the lots.
