a float, a flicker is inspired by time is all its awe inspiring and anxiety laden glory. In a handmade floatation device, I resign myself to the current of the Cuyahoga River in order to make amends with the passage of time.

Documentation of a float, a flicker was presented at SPACES Gallery, 2009

As a part of the SPACES exhibition, we hosted a float workshop inviting the public to experiment with things that will keep them afloat.  As pictured below, when we took our floats to the river our plans got washed up.
