Mood Ring

This site-specific installation at the Chazen Museum of Art in Madison, WI features a glass display case enclosing a white plastic hand chair. The hand is adorned with a ring that contains an analog television screen. As there is static on the TV, a pair of headphones rests outside of the case for the viewer to tune in and listen. This piece is installed alongside the museum’s permanent chair collection. Mood Ring conjures a forgotten past while poking fun at contemporary notions of interactivity.
