Fun with the Alphabet
Baltimore artist Lauren P. Adams worked with children staying at The Johns Hopkins Infirmary to create an aesthetic upper-case alphabet to be displayed in the Bloomberg Children's Center. Adams taught the children a technique chosenpapel picado, for creating paper cut-outs, which were transformed into colorful silkscreens by Baltimore Impress Studios. Boosted alphabet-themed artworks include Scott Teplin'sAlphabet for Alphaville, a playful prepare of messages featuring intricate and fanciful scenes, and Jeffrey Mitchell'sABCDEFGHI<3U.
The alphabet theme continues outside the Bloomberg Children'due south Center, where the 26 colors that artist Spencer Finch used on the hospital'due south giant curtain wall are displayed in alphabetical order past color name.
