Living
Large is a video statement on housing in America and was created
in collaboration with artist Jacalyn Lopez Garcia. Originally projected
against the vast white wall of a retired bank, the short film is an animation
of nothing to something and status to homeless. The collaboration underlines
the artists' unrealized efforts of purchasing a home in Southern California
and stems from their observations of inflated neighborhoods with unreachable
houses.
