In Your Neighborhood is presented in a storefront space of Public Pool Art Space at the intersection of Caniff and Gallagher Streets in Hamtramck, Michigan.
Since the show is about the sights and sounds of the town it is immersed in, placing all of the collected information right at the heart of the city in a storefront accessible location made sense. The images in the show are able to be viewed right outside of the window here.
The red chairs house the conversation corner where gallery goers and others are invited to share their stories of Hamtramck. I record their oral histories and they get placed into more listening tin cans that get hung on the tree during the course of the show.
