Safe Place - Red Room

2011

A fortress made of scrap fabric inside a bedroom at the Elsewhere Collaborative in Greensboro NC. Aluminum furniture was secured to form a structure into which the fabric could be placed. Elements of the room's previous installation were incorporated, including a red costume bodice, a heavy red mat (formerly the costume's skirt) and dressmaking patterns. The ceiling was also covered with brown and green fabric to prevent plaster raining down.
