House on Wheels
2000 multi-media Installation |
|
House on Wheels is a multi-media, interdisciplinary video installation addressing issues related to multi-cultural experiences. |
Our Stories
2003-2005 audio intallation |
|
Our Stories is a multi-media audio installation created in collaboration with community youth. Stories are told by a group of culturally diverse high school students. Five small-scale white houses create the main visual structure of the installation; contrasted with black electrical cords that act as lifelines. The visual part is minimalistic and the concentration of the piece is on the voices, the diverse voices of youth, in their original languages. |
