PROJECT: ARTRAGEOUS
SEASON:2011-2012
EVENT:
Photobooth
"Come and swim with the sharks! Â Be catapulted into space! Â Be transformed into a drawing of yourself!" Â As residents headed to their favorite restaurants in October of 2011, they were greeted with some very unexpected visitors. Â
Hoop dancers Gina Wolfe and Kerri Wiegand welcomed passersby, leading them to a spontaneous photobooth designed by Lucas Sams and Aaron Pelzek. Â Photographs were immediately digitally manipulated to place the subjects into unusual contexts, designed by Kirill Simin. Â The photographs were projected onto the side of the photobooth as they were taken, and were then posted on our website; participants were encouraged to download them for free.
