Rule #3, Safety 1st

“It’s a dangerous world, so we make signs and stories, and we paint things orange. We came across a sign that made us laugh. It was handwritten in green (or maybe red) temporary marker and listed rules and principles to follow:

The first rule was cleanliness is next godliness. The second, don’t run with scissors when you’re drunk. Rule number three, safety first.” - Dan Reidy, collaborator

This body of work is a manifestation the spirited joy found at the intersection of industrial safety and fine art.
