a short stay residency at the james castle house in boise. completed in isolation, lighting installations were utilized as means to communicate w/ the outside world.
a chain of connected light fixtures rising up from the bedroom to the highest point of the ceiling as if they were spirits weaving their way through our world.
a static installation featuring a conical structure running from floor to ceiling and inside a series of floating linens in various stages of ascension or descension.
a performance piece the idea was to bring more color, mood and life into the space by dancing non-stop for three hours while passers by stood and watched.
