NEST PLANS

PictureImage and design by Anastasia Schneider
THE NEST has been in planning mode since JUNE 2014.  It began with conversations between CMP and myself when they invited me to come for the FINE Artist's Residency.  I soon invited Anastasia into the project because or fabulous collaborative past working on installation performances.  Plus she has an AMAZING design aesthetic that I trust and speaks to my own.  We soon began talking of an evolving space that tells a story and uses clues for visitors to construct the meaning of the space.  THUS, THE NEST was born.  

We have gone back and forth between a couple of designs thinking about different spaces within the museum, material considerations and time constraints.  Above is an image of the space where our installation will be built- the CMP Art Studio.  The image of the side shows our design inspiration- a giant nest made of macrame rope and maps.  OUR CREATURE is a vagabond, a traveller.  Its home takes many forms and for the next 10 days...IT LIVES INSIDE A MUSEUM!
