CCA - TTY (Thanks To You), Video Installation, 2007
DVD 1:50:00, loop

 

CCA - TTY (Thanks To You) is a documentary style video consisting of interviews of teachers I had during my career at California College of the Arts. During my time at art school, 30 teachers instructed me on various subject matters. I invited instructors to come to my studio at school for a 30-minute question and answer session. The questions were presented upon filming. The general topics were identity and self-representation with questions about the teacher, the student and life.

A very warm thank you to Bogna Lorence-Kot, Jordan Geiger, Nance O'Banion, Almudena Ortiz, Sue Costabile, Celeste Connor aka Rrosa Seconda aka Iris Ronnoc, and Jane McKinne-Mayer.

 

Installation Location: Isabella Percy West Gallery, Oakland, California
