Live performance/ Installation
2008
Hotshop Abstraction extracts and interprets the intense experience of a glassblowing studio.
A large industrial space is filled with fog, and pre-recorded sound of a growling mechanical noise of a glass shop. A "glory hole"(stand-alone furnace for reheating hot glass) replicated out of cardboard is installed at one end of the space. A slide projector installed behind the glory hole
casts a strong beam of light to the other end of the wall. The mass of light draws a perfect conical shape because of the fog particle in the atmosphere.
The piece was exhibited in at Gallery Catacomb, Central Falls, RI in May 2008.
