Blind Spot by TwoPlus Collaborative,
"Biking around the city, a cyclist must constantly assume she is invisible, hidden in the driver’s blind spot. Similarly, Austinites pass over Waller Creek on a daily basis without noticing it. Our installation exposes these conditions by inviting people to interact with an assemblage of steel mirrors strategically located in the creek bed. Projected videos taken while biking around Austin add another layer of visual information and help visitors to imagine a different reality for Waller Creek.
As visitors walk through the mirrors, they become a part of the art installation, adding their own reflections to the reflections of those around them. Through this immersive, shared experience, we hope to initiate a dialogue about the importance of investing in the urban, people-oriented spaces of Austin."
