INSTALLATIONS & VISUAL ART


The Four Dignities

"The Four Dignities" is a secular interpretation of the Buddhist concept of mindfulness as embodied in the different positions we assume throughout the day: sitting, standing, walking, and lying down. When viewers move into the corresponding position in each of the four quadrants of the installation, they activate spoken-word sound fields for each Dignity, which are layered over an ambient sound track by composer Janice Gitek.
