Larissa Brown
A towering curve of yellow interoffice envelopes sits in the lobby of a Portland office building. It’s the work of visual artist Larissa Brown. After this office worker took a sculpture class, she became inspired to make art pieces from the supplies at work — shipping tags, staplers, and typewriter ribbon. Produced by Dmae Roberts. Funding was provided by Hearing Voices through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
