LIFE-LINE (2021)
Collaborator: Karina Skvirsky
Life-line is a series of 26 augmented full-bodied portraits with audible voices of multigenerational members, reflecting the diversity of the Lower East Side community that memorializes people waiting in line.
These portraits, spaced 6 feet apart, are exhibited along the fence at The Clemente Soto Vélez Cultural & Educational Cenr Inc., a Puerto Rican/Latinx multi-arts cultural institution that demonstrates a broad-minded cultural vision and inclusive philosophy rooted in NYC’s Lower East Side/Loisaida. Audience members can pass by the line of photographs and choose to look and listen to the people represented via QR codes on their mobile phone-lines.
