Artist Ed Massey is laying the groundwork for a massive art installation showcasing vibrant tents for unhoused individuals.

Massey is challenging the public to step up its efforts and face the issue head-on and says that if there is accelerated and tangible progress in addressing and mitigating the core issues related to homelessness within the next 12 – 15 months, Massey will shelve the project — which if it goes forward would be sightly, but an admission of colossal public failure.

Distribution and street presence activation of up to 5,000 art tents could be accomplished in 7 – 10 days, visually transforming neighborhoods, public spaces, business districts, and becoming a sardonic yet visually stimulating city symbol for residents and visitors alike.
