In mid-February 2024, this huge red curtain appeared in downtown Albuquerque, covering a chain link fence protecting a building project. The design is by MALCOLM KING, who participated in the Ambos Lados International Print Exchange. It would be even more wonderful if the building also incorporated some of Malcolm's design:

Now we are wondering if we can make prints on an old credit card imprinter, from a 3D printed plate:
