Shadows of the Past

Exhibition Statement

Shadows of the Past is a response to a call to activate the Paramount Theater Third Street Box Office. This installation is a visual and auditory reminder of a time when these larger than life lines and shadows were people who, despite having to wait in a segregated line and use a segregated entrance, were still excited to see a show. They hold the memory of that excitement mixed with the emotion that comes when one is told before entering a building that they are less than those that are allowed to use the front entrance. As these lines tell the story of what once was, they reach toward you to ask what is next? This installation will fade over time, but my hope is that these lines, shadows and words will stay bold in your minds and hearts so that we do not allow the past to be forgotten or repeated.
