Project description
Our public sculptural installation reacts to democracy as a practice of collective translation across cultures. Responses from language course students extends everyday expressions of democracy to multilingual audiences. We have translated such into a fabric structure of gathering, which recalls protest architectures from umbrella as a resisting shield to emblematic flag posts. It invites passersby to stand under and around, to prospect upon the translated shadows that are shifting and prolonging into surrounding political landscape.
