NETWORK, 2009
(site-specific installation for a storefront space in downtown Chicago)
Visualizing the idea that we simultaneously live in a real and virtual world, and that the virtual is infinitely expansive, Network uses large quantities of electric yellow twine (tied in patterns based on both social network structures and Internet network infrastructure) to suggest a virtual network landscape cutting through an otherwise ordinary space.
Images also included of the build process with artists Lara Rivera and John Rich.
