Ever found yourself flipping through a waiting room pamphlet and wondering, “Who actually picks these up?” Bailey Meadow sure has. Bailey’s Growing Pain Pamphlets is an interactive installation that reimagines the overlooked, the crumpled-up, the free-for-the-taking as an art form—one that is as humorous as it is heartfelt.
A love letter to print ephemera, community knowledge, and the joy of the mundane, this project blends design, writing, pop culture, and personal storytelling into a collection of pamphlets covering everything from Michael Cera to Midwest survival tactics. These aren’t your average doctor’s office handouts; they’re designed to be picked up, tossed in the backseat, rediscovered, and, ultimately, lived with.
