| A Short Room Full of Tall People for SCOPE New York 2005 nylon fabric, fabricated steel, crowd 100' x 25' x 30' |
A Short Room Full of Tall People was created for the 2005 SCOPE New York art fair in the atrium of Manhattan’s Flatotel. Over the course of an evening, a bright red fabric ceiling slowly descended from an initial height of thirty feet, until it rested directly on the heads and outstretched hands of the crowd. The wide open event space was gradually compressed into an intimate setting. The sculpture uses simple geometry and light to explore the interdependencies of architectural and social space. |
