Face Up Project

Face Up: Telling Stories of Community Life is a documentary/public art project that grows out of local conversations about neighborhood goals in Southwest Central Durham, North Carolina. The project blends an artist's residency with collaborative documentary exploration and art-making in community settings, building relationships in the process. Face Up connects individuals and organizations on the Duke University campus and in Durham communities through creative engagement. The project's open approach encourages diverse participation in the enhancement of the aesthetic environment, as visiting artist Brett Cook leads the creation of large murals that will expand awareness of historic and contemporary persons and places in Southwest Central Durham.
