Lots of Dots (2021)

The installation Lots of Dots, 2021, features an example of the Lots of Dots rug produced by Joy of Carpets for schools specializing in disciplinarian pedagogy, and a lighting rig that is programmed to accentuate and conceal different elements of the carpet at set intervals, destabilizing the organization of the grid. The lighting sequence lasts 40 minutes, the standard length of a class period in the New York City public school system. The installation served as a site of a series of movement research workshops with young people over the course of the exhibition. Lots of Dots is an extension of the video work, The Student Body.
