Voices Productions teams up with artist Corban Lundborg at their headquarters in Dubuque to bring a new mural to the city. Corban painted a tribute mural to the jazz musician John Coltrane (1926-1967). The new Voices headquarters is located on Central Street in Dubuque, Iowa. The building is currently undergoing renovations to become a community gallery and artist-in-residence space. 

Military artist and combat photojournalist, Corban Lundborg, shares his newest project titled "Extra". The series is a visual exploration of the press, propaganda and painting. Corban uses art to dig into WWII era headlines, learning more about our nation's past, hoping to better understand the future. 

Corban uses a multimedia approach in this series. The panels are made of wood, then covered in paint, adhesive and newsprint, torn out of a book titled "WWII Extra". He then hand painted iconic WWII imagery on top of the print using acrylic paint. Finally, Corban recorded the whole process using a camera and produced a short form documentary about the project (posted above).

When I enlisted in the military ten years ago, I had no guidance or mentors involved in the process. Although I do not regret my path, I do wish I would have known all of my options. I didn't know there were camera careers until I had been in for almost five years. I receive messages weekly about my career path and how to join a combat camera unit. I'll share below my journey to COMCAM and resources to help the next generation make more informed decisions. 

Corban was authorized to bring a film camera to the field portion of SERE School. Equipped with a Holga 120n plastic camera he was able to capture four rolls of Ilford HP5 medium format film. Attached below is a selection of his favorite frames.

Following a deployment to East Africa, Corban sat down with Staff Sgt. Della Creech with 315th AW Public Affairs to share his thoughts on being creative in the military. The full article can be viewed below.  

While deployed to East Africa, Corban sought to create a unique illustration series inspired by his time in the region. Looking around the combat camera office he noticed an old box of Meal, Ready to Eat (military field meals). While digging through the box he found old instant coffee and mixed it up using the supplies in the pack.

Corban started experimenting with how the coffee took to paper and ink. After some time he came up with a series of MRE illustrations inspired by his time in uniform. He self-produced video documentation of the collection that can be viewed above. 

For more information and possible collaboration please reach out to COLD Studio directly.

MICRO is an ongoing ink collection that began during a deployment to East Africa. Corban received a pack of Micron pens in a care package and started inking thousands of small lines and dots to create one-of-a-kind characters and illustrations. 

MICRO illustrations are a form of freestyle drawing where Corban doesn't have an end vision in mind when he begins. Each piece comes together as he progresses. This process helps Corban clear his mind during times of  stress.
