Holiday Getaway

I was marginally involved in this project at Tyler School of Art. The assignment for Jess Perlitz's sculpture class was to work collaboratively to organize a holiday fair of sorts for everyone at Tyler. My partners and I decided to create a "relaxation station" in three parts:

1) First station would feature an armchair where you could sit and receive a five-minute scalp massage (from me).
2) Second station would be an enclosed space. Inside would be 3 chairs, a long sandbox for feet, and a projection of ocean scenery.
3) The third station would be a totally insulated cave-like sleeping space, with sleeping bags, blankets, and pillows where one could sleep for as long as necessary.

The kicker was that a visitor could either pay $5 to go through the station, or get in for free if they agreed to have their face filmed close-up throughout the process.

I ended up leaving school before I got to help execute the project, but Maddie was kind enough to keep me posted as to how it actually played out. It appears the first and last stations disappeared, and the second "beach house" station became the focal point. I love that someone actually mooned the camera.
