The Day Series

Ann Trondson (b. 1976, Murfreesboro, United States) is an artist working through her seemingly mundane desires. She started the project The Day Series in August 2021 and for fifty-two weeks, Monday-Friday, she created a collage in the shape of a piano, using the previous weeks' New York Times Sunday Newspaper as the collage material resulting in an artwork that contains two hundred and sixty individual panels. The Day Series will travel to various art spaces for three years until the works will be disbursed to its individual collectors..
