Scrim_site-specific installation (as XS)

For the Dumbo Arts Festival, fall 2013. Materials: Avery Color-Coding Labels/ various standard sizes/ color: blue. image: K. Tehve

Scrim was formed using Photoshop to convert an image of hand-made lace into a dot-screen. This dot screen was rendered (each dot placed by hand) on the glazed entry of 55 Washington Street in Brooklyn, NY. Scrim transforms the entry of a building normally inhabited by everyday commerce into a threshold for a container of art. Craft-automation-craft.

XS is a partnership between Karin Tehve & Sarah Strauss
Mission-
To study pattern in the urban environment as a means to identify public space through the intensification of everyday qualities and characteristics.
