REEF WAKE @ The Williamsburgh Library


  • Williamsburgh Library (Downstairs) 240 Division Avenue Brooklyn, NY, 11211 United States (map)

As a finalist for the 2019 Creative Climate Awards (organized by the Human Impacts Institute), we are honored to bring this static version of REEF WAKE to the Williamsburgh Library. Given the constraints of this month-long exhibition, we have removed the participatory elements to reduce potential safety hazards. In this meditative presentation, a tiny revolving “lighthouse” shines a narrow beam of life around the room, slowly revealing these glowing coral fragments as our everyday garbage.

Special thanks to Librarian Catherine Skrzypek, the Human Impacts Institute, and the Williamsburgh Library Staff for their support in making this installation a reality.

REEF WAKE will be on view through December 2019 in the Williamsburgh Library branch of the Brooklyn Public Library system during library hours.
