Artist Statement: Series of Daly city homes, one part of an installation of 100 #DalyCity100
The American Bones Series is a multimedia art project that explores America's cultural narratives that form the bone structure of the nation’s identity.
The Daly City, home paintings are the latest from this series. The Daly City painting of this particular home was built for the GIs returning from WWII and was the inspiration for the song; "Little Boxes on the Hillside”. Architecturally, they represented the conformity of the 1950s in post-war America that the 1960s rejected. Now they are seen as mid-century modern icons and highly desirable. This famous planned community tells a story of American culture through the decades.
