The Middle Passage

Project

Overview

Dates
24 March–29 April 2012

Location
NAGB, Floor 1
Project Space

This installation was part of Transforming Spaces: Fibre.

For Transforming Spaces: Fibre, multidisciplinary artist Jeffrey Meris transformed the Project Space into a narrow passage. Strips of plywood covered with cotton filled the room from floor to ceiling. The wide opening narrows as it nears the exit, making for an intimate and uncomfortable experience for the viewer.
