This project at the Dirt Palace in Providence consisted of seven translucent interior windows. The pieces were made for Robin Nanney, an artist whose private studio space was adjacent to a busy artist's cooperative space. She wanted to allow light into the studio without compromising her privacy. She also wanted the wall to appear both fortress-like and appealing to visitors. The wall was positioned with morning light striking one side and afternoon light striking the other so that a wide range of light conditions affected the pieces. The windows’ compositions related to the surrounding architecture and to the interface between public space and private space.
