DOUBLE BASS

Hanging River was an exhibition of new work in collaboration of Takahiro Yamamoto and Andy Paiko. As multiple transparent objects shaped as utilitarian objects are precariously hung from the ceiling, a large glass sculpture resembling a string-instrument is placed in the corner, unplayed but displayed. Through the physical and visual presentation of the installation, this project attempts to find embrace in cognitive dissonance. The bass was part of several site-specific performances by Yamamoto and musician Shao Wei Wu.
