Orange Lining is a public art project created by Buster
Simpson and Peg Butler for the new MAX Orange Line,
formerly known as the Portland-Milwaukie Light Rail (PMLR)
Transit Project. Orange Lining installations span the 7.3
mile length of the light rail alignment to create episodic,
conceptual and aesthetic continuity.

Orange Lining & Impressed Concrete | Buster Simpson
Introduction
Orange Lining consists of two project phases that placed community-generated lines of text
along the length of the light rail alignment. In the spring of 2012, drawing upon Portland’s
ethic of community engagement and creativity, a public call was sent out for brief written
expressions of the times that would reflect upon the egalitarian, utilitarian and civic nature
of this new infrastructure project. The call requested short lines of text (fifty characters or
less) to be painted onto silt fencing during the temporary Art Starts Now phase and then
stamped into sidewalk paving during the permanent Impressed Concrete phase. Eleven
hundred submissions were received, and one hundred and two of them were selected as
“orange lines” for use in the project through a blind-jury selection process.
Phase one, Art Starts Now, employed orange silt fencing as a surface for publishing the
poetic works, assigning a dual function to this utilitarian material. During phase two,
Impressed Concrete, text was stamped into fresh concrete along the alignment referencing
the City’s history of stamping street names into curbs at corners. The intention behind both
phases was to work with common construction materials used by the skilled tradespeople
responsible for building the light rail alignment.
This book provides a pictorial view of the two-phased process. The selection of photographs
gives an overall sense of the project and includes at least one photo to represent each of the
chosen “orange lines.”

Art Starts Now
Art Starts Now integrated art into the construction process,
providing something to help ameliorate the inevitable disturbances
that affect neighbors and travelers in an ongoing construction
zone.
Construction workers delivered the rolls of silt fencing needed for
erosion control to our warehouse studio. Lines of text were hand
painted onto fencing using stencils, India ink and foam brushes
and then rolled back up and delivered to the main construction
yard. Workers picked them up from there and installed them when
and where required for erosion control. There was no curation of
installation locations.
In total, over 100 rolls of Art Starts Now fencing were installed,
adding up to about a mile of poetic fencing. The installations were
temporary, lasting only as long as the construction mitigation
process required.

Tote bags were created out of remnants of silt fencing
that contained errors. For straps, old seat belts found
discarded in the warehouse were used. During the
Impressed Concrete phase of the project, construction
crews used the bags to transport stamp sets.

Impressed Concrete
During the Impressed Concrete phase, lines of text were stamped
into freshly poured concrete sidewalks by the same masons who
installed the streets and other surfaces along the alignment. We
had stamp sets fabricated to create an impression that resembled
the existing historical street name stampings located throughout
the city. Stamp placement and technique were closely assessed
and monitored by TriMet and the City of Portland. We worked
with TriMet’s Public Art and Project Design teams to create a set of
documents detailing the location and typesetting for each of the
121 stamping locations.

Arrivals & Departures
What the ephemeral Art Starts Now introduced to passing
motorists is now imbedded into Impressed Concrete awaiting
chance encounters by pedestrians who may once have been those
motorists and now are walking to the light rail. Orange Lining
began as a fleeting poetic utility and has become concrete poetry;
civic notions set to linger in place and mind.
