Velour and aluminum hardware.
Peggy Ahwesh and Linda Norden asked me to design a curtain arrangement for Peggy’s first solo exhibition in Los Angeles. As the exhibition consisted of video projections and monitors, a sensitive treatment of the space, lighting and sound was required. Taking all into consideration and working closely with Linda, I designed three arcs of paneled curtains that would give a sense of the videos’ respective spaces as well as connect different areas of the exhibition. The colors and the material of the curtains were inspired by Peggy’s work. I saw my role as similar to a musical accompanist for Peggy’s solo exhibition at JOAN.
