Breathing Room 1, Amherst MA, Spring 2010
The inside of the room was covered in thousands of pages from telephone books. Some pages hung from twine and the rest covered the floor and walls. A recording of breathing was played in the background. The intention was for the viewer to sit down in this intimate/cozy but somewhat surreal space and connect with the seemingly endless number of individuals living and breathing on the planet together with the viewer in the present moment.
