2014

Hurricane Sandy devastated many areas on the eastern seaboard. The Rockaway Peninsula (The Rockaways), was hit hard, resulting in over one hundred destroyed (and thousands of damaged) homes. Designed in collaboration with Elastic City, this walk invited participants to explore the peninsula in the aftermath of the storm through experiencing, sharing and invoking personal loss. What is our tolerance for loss and what are you willing to lose?
