Boston-based Artist Andy Li is May’s artist-in-residence at The Switchboard of Haverhill.
Li is devoting the first half of his residency to exploring the Haverhill area and delving into “truck culture” as it relates to the local, working class community. Li plans to use Haverhill-based imagery and information from his conversations and research to create vinyl logos emulating those used as advertisements on windshields of commercial trucks.
