All You Have To Do Is Ask
A former card catalogue cabinet serves as a collection center for questions provided by the general public. All You Have To Do Is Ask is an interactive station where people write down pressing questions circulating in their minds.
Host sites have varied form art galleries to a private garage. Most recently, it occupied a section of North Branch Projects' workshop space during the annual Block Party Festival at The Art Institute of Chicago.
Cards are organized in various ways within each drawer and used as prompts for other interactive books and projects.
Support for this project was made possible by a residency through the Chicago Art Department.
Many thanks also goes to Northwestern University Library and Eli Brooke for the donation of the card catalogue cabinet.
