The glass flask is filling with water from the Coosa River (collected from the bank of the River under the Broad St. Bridge in Gadsden, Alabama). This flask of water sits upon a video screen playing close-up footage of areas of the Coosa River near the bridge. The movement of the water reflects light through the flask. Throughout the exhibition, the water will evaporate from inside the flask.

Rainbow Lightning's cavescape inside SPACES recycles objects, clothing, and fabrics to resemble a natural subterranean environment. Personal stories collected over the past year are embroidered on the walls of the cave, like graffiti in a teenager's hideout. The childlike wonder of a plush cave evokes the past that is reflected in the memories delicately sewn to the walls.
These were the most "inaccurate" part of the installation. These signs would normally be facing out when the door is closed, not facing in (like here). This was obviously done because the door had to be propped open during the fair.
This is inside an installation called 'Dreamscape' that spent some tim of the South Bank of the Thames.
In November 2013, nearly a year to the day of the beginning of construction, "a year and one day" stands proud and tall on the grounds of Longue Vue House and Gardens in New Orleans, Louisiana. Created to slowly be overgrown with plant-life (both indigenous and invasive) and deteriorate with time, this site-specific time-based artwork continues to evolve. Step inside this tomb and contemplate the cycle of life and death. Light filters through a water prism in the ceiling to create a place of passivity.

I can't recall precisely which Jewish Museum or Holocaust Memorial Museum this might remind me of ... perhaps none, actually... but it does remind me of that somehow, linking our stories, our identities.
