Design MMoCA: Madison Museum of Contemporary Art

2012

 

Alma, Wisconsin (After Soth) was my piece for the 2012 Design MMoCA at the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art. The museum challenged me to make a piece inspired by Alec Soth’s Cemetery, Fountain City, WI (2002), and this is what I came up with. As my first installation, it even had sound. And an empty bottle of Orange Crush. (The last image on this page—which is very long—contains the photo narrative from that endeavor.)
