content: Project files include materials documenting two projects. The first project, 2007 poster designs protesting George Bush and the Iraq War, include sketches and photocopied photographs, printed emails, and notes. Some of the sketches were drawn on cocktail napkins. The second project, "The Double Life of Amphibians," documents a play by Morton Subtonic with paintings and visual supervision by Petlin. Included are annotated stage and visual directions; annotated sketches of the stage; and Petlin's handwritten notes with sketches.
