OPTIONAL PLAQUES is a series of works by artist Peter Burr that play with virtual architecture, unstable capital, and the public commons of the digital age.

Drawing inspiration from constructivist art, utopian architecture, and early computer graphics techniques, Burr depicts monumental human limbs framed within rigid white-on-black scaffolds, blithely admired by a small crowd.

Known for his innovative digital art practice, Burr has recently expanded his body of work with high-profile commissions and collaborations. These include web-based projects currently on view at the Whitney Museum of American Art and MoMA.
