Shift Work install Nov. 2010
Shift Work was a multi-media installation that unfolded over 4 weeks last fall at Bethany Lutheran College. The show grew and evolved over the first two weeks: sculptures appeared over night, or grew incrementally from component parts over the course of several days.
The last two weeks of the install works begin to devolve…
Mutate…
…Incrementally disappear.
The Third Shift: The midnight-to-eight-am shift, also known as the “Graveyard Shift.”
Shift Work: The practice of dividing the day into three 8 hour shifts, making it possible for work to occur all twenty–four-hours. The term can also refer to long-term overnight work, or rotating day-and-night shifts.
