Through the Tempest to the Stars (Primary View), 2020
360 x 640 cm (h x w)
Interactive Installation
Originally created as an interactive installation inspired by the ceremony of the first graduates of “Male and Female Colored School Number 1.”
What you see here is a screen recording of one of the three video channels as an unseen user interacts with the piece. In its first exhibition, a user would pick up a black box and use it to navigate the environment.
This work features contributions from the Peale Center, the Hosanna School, and Direct Dimensions. The title is the motto of the 1889 graduating class.
