Laurel Beckman's Day Tripper-TriBeCa

November 6 - December 7, 2003
Artist Reception: Thursday, November 6th, 6-9pm
TAMAD, 5 Harrison Street, New York
Laurel Beckman was a participant in this year's Psy.Geo.Conflux, where she introduced her Day-Tripper Project. She's back in New York now for an exhibition of the project, which involves mapping the perception of light in lower downtown.

Laurel Beckman's project "Day Tripper" is an invitation to the viewer to reconsider the urban landscape in relation to perceptual phenomena. "Day Tripper" is a site-specific work that maps cities according to the experience of natural and artificial light. Day Tripper-TriBeCa features seven large digital prints produced in response to the TriBeCa neighborhood in NYC. The suite of images present aesthetic responses and literal directions to the conditions at seven sites offering opportunities for altered mind states through the perception of light. The artist invites viewers to experience their environment as active participants in the search and construction of alternative social spaces. Festivities at the opening reception include the east coast premiere of Beckman's latest computer animation, Rainbow's Make Me Sleepy.
