Kingston Tour Series
Heather Smith presented a series drawings depicting “uncelebrated landmarks” in the form of post cards and bus advertisements that mimic local tourism and civic pride. Smith uses the visual cues of tourism to create a different visual identity for the city; one that encompasses landmarks recognized on the day-to-day travels of Kingstonians. These drawings use the transit system of the bus to direct audiences to these Kingston landmarks, presenting here the City buses as Kingston tour buses in their own right.
