ELECTRIC BATHING
Conceived and Created by Sarah Provost and Lake Simons:
Nice Blog Post for “Electric Bathing”
Coney Island circa 1910. Two garment factory workers escape from respectability into a world of fantasy where shirtwaists become kites, fans transform into seagulls, hatboxes are rides, spools of thread are anchors, and ropes are the ocean tide.

BLIND SPOT
Conceived and Created by Leonora Loeb
A presentation of a series of videos and projections that collage urban images. This installation clashes scale- from diorama to larger than life- where inauthentic documentation reveals traces of a workspace’s history of ideas.
