Mark Addison Smith is a queer artist whose design specialization is typographic storytelling: allowing illustrative text to convey a visual narrative through printed matter, artist’s books, and site installations. With his on-going, text-based archive, You Look Like The Right Type: 15 Years, he has been illustrating snippets of overheard conversations every single day since 2008 and exhibiting the works as larger-scale conversations between strangers exchanging words on topics never spoken.

Opening Reception: Monday, September 16, 4-7 p.m.

Free parking is available the evening of the reception at the CCS Woodward open-air lot, located on Baltimore St between Cass and Woodward.

Gallery hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 12 p.m. – 6 p.m.
