From February 10-13, the art students at East Central College in Union, MO and I were busy creating an installation to transform a portion of their hallway. One of the tenets was to use materials that are readily available and inexpensive, such as kraft paper, charcoal, packaging tape, tracing and tissue paper, and paint. The other was to have the viewer become a participant in the space/installation changing their experience of walking down a hallway. The result is the picture above. They were a great group of students and faculty who worked tirelessly and enthusiastically for two and a half days. Best of all, we had wonderful critical discussions about design and installation art. Furthermore, we created a work of art that engaged the various departments on campus. Thank you for the hard work, camaraderie, and the willingness to embrace the unknown. I had a great time.
