Between Day and Night is a series of site-specific interventions about time and wayfinding, presented in public space and speculative documentary film.
The work is staged at twilight,
among a network of infrastructural passageways spanning Manhattan’s old West Side Highway and the New Jersey Meadowlands’ Witt Penn Bridge.
Metal beams—each capped with a single LED lamp, connected to a hidden control box—create the impression of lime green orbs, whose glow slowly rises and falls over the course of
approximately twenty-two minutes: timed to illuminate the transitional space between the setting sun and evening’s onset.
Bodies and systems, human and nonhuman pass before these light rods, and are too, illuminated. The spaces we cohabit and cocreate begin to appear anew; re-exploring what is just at hand. A gesture of transference across elements and the living world is made. As is an offering of rapport.
