With this installation Helsley hopes to create an environment where the audience is both the viewer and the viewee, turning the gallery space into a “fish bowl.” Making use of the extensive amount of window space at Gallery 924, the viewer is obliged to observe the installation from both inside and outside. In essence, creating a fish bowl, a space where the audience is transformed into a spectacle, a kind of living, fluid memory.
