Conspire, Charlestown Navy Yard, The Freedom and Black Heritage Trails, 2001, Boston,  MA

Installation with four additional sculptures in along Boston’s historic Freedom and Black Heritage Trails as part of an Artist in Residence program with the Institute for Contemporary Art (ICA) and Boston National Historical Parks (BNHP).  Collaboration with Michael Dowling.   The June - October 2001 installation featured 4 site-specific house shaped sculptures at African Meeting House, Old South Meeting House, Paul Revere House and Copp’s Hill Cemetery using materials of slate, alabaster, cast copper, burnished silver, water and reflected light. The installation cumulated in a full scale (17’ x 22’) copper meeting house built by over 100 volunteers upon a 110’ wooden planked barge within the Charlestown Navy Yard.  Inspired by the legacy of meetings within Boston’s historical past (meetings to worship/teach/mourn/inspire political dialogue or action) the smaller sculptures reflected a particular site /discussion of liberation while the larger copper meeting house offered an internal environment of light and sound for contemporary reflection and refuge. Project included collaboration with US Navy, National Park Service, Revere Copper and over 150 volunteers.
