A stylized color photograph of a police barricade. One police officer makes up half the image and has his back turned towards the police line up. He is holding up a flashlight. The second half of the image is a blurred line of police men; one smudge of a face and a row of helmets forming a magenta, stretched beam of light.
A photo of the Queens Museum's Gallery 6 containing a large installation with three white, life-sized dog sculptures walking on a white, circular platform and holding lavender, red, and orange ribbons attached to a large white cane pole. The platform is covered in pink, magenta, and red paper mache flowers. The gallery walls are covered with trees made of light and dark green painted paper mache leaves. The gallery also features a grey-blue crescent moon and a large orange sun floating above the back entrance.
A black and white photograph of five people sitting in the back row of a bus. The people are of different racial backgrounds and genders. Their arms are crossed and they are sinking into the back seat. The fatigue of public transport is written on their face. Behind them are two round windows framing road they are passing over and a sign the reads “No Smoking” in all caps.
A video thumbnail with a centered, black “press play” symbol in a green rounded off square. The thumbnail is of a two-story, vertical mural against a white marble wall. The mural is installed above a set of elevators and between two sets of escalators. The mural has a wooden surface with different shades of blue paint in a rectangular shape in the center. Layered on top, are rounded off streaks of paint in many colors.
A wide shot of artist Pauline Shaw leaning on the second floor balcony at Queens Center Mall, overlooking the Center Court. Under the balcony is her commissioned mural. The colorful installation features blue, purple, pink, and pink hues, combining extracted landscapes of birds and flowers with abstracted images of cells and tissues found in the human body.
An architectural rendering of a futuristic pavilion set in a park. The main part of the pavilion has a white, bulbous shape and is gracing the sky on white cylindrical columns, planted in the ground in a circle. Within the pavilion is a group of mature trees and a gridded glass sealing that mimics the topography of the tree canopy. Down at the ground are tiny specs of people that demonstrate the grand scale of the pavilion.
A exhibition room lit up by a slender, wooden light fixture. The light fixture is giving the room a warm tone. On the exhibition floor is dark, wooden panels arranged in a zigzag. Each panel has a unique cut out with a different vessel placed inside.
A black graphic with collaged, white, stylized images of people at protests and their signs. The protest signs include phrases like “come together, “the struggle continues”, and “la revolución es poder para el pueblo”.
A photo of the Queens Museum's Gallery 1 with low lighting and various industrial kitchen equipment. At the forefront of the image is an altered industrial kitchen sink with LED lighting and a transparent cover upon which are resting dozens of brown-orange snail shells. On the right side of the image are four white boards with marker drawings of spirals and a thermometer, as well as a list of numbers. A rotisserie oven and refrigerator are visible in the back of the room, bathed in orange and blue light.
The entrance to the Queens Museum against a blue, day-time sky. “Queens Museum” is spelled out in silver signage across the top of the building. Hanging below the sign and above the front doors is a color photograph portrait of a Chinese man. He is posing against a white backdrop and wearing a white button up.
On a white exhibition wall is a photograph of a white woman with short, brown, curly hair, wearing a black dress who is holding up a piece of paper in one hand. She is mimicking a painted portrait of man holding the same pose. To the right of the photograph is a mosaic patterned sheet of paper made up of tiny, multi-colored squares. The paper is in an abstract shape and has some of its squares missing.
Five colorful banners hang from the ceiling reading Proposal for a 28th Amendment?” And “Is it possible to amend an unequal system? in the five most spoken languages in Corona, NY. Below the banners, four visitors stand and lay on the five wooden colorful soapboxes in different arrangements.
