A performance and video/sculpture/sound installation sited in the Hampshire College bus shelter, which connects Hampshire to Amherst College, Mount Holyoke College, Smith College, and the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. Students converted 1,500 plastic bottles into raw material for the installation to spark a wider environmental discourse about oil, energy, waste, and violence.
Co-directed by Beth Ferguson (Sol Design Lab) and created in collaboration with students enrolled in the "Rethinking Public Places" course offered through the Hampshire College DART Program, Amherst, MA.
