Collaboration with 3 fellow graduate students about the transient lifestyle of an emerging artist. The truck was parked downtown in Madison, WI amongst the burgeoning homeless population. The outside of the truck was tied down by sandbags, which provided a visual implication of weightlessness. Inside the truck hundreds of cardboard moving boxes, all belonging to each of the participating artists representing the uncertainty of the future. Vintage filmstrips curated from ebay collections were projected onto the boxes representing the romance and nostalgia of the past.
