New York University Abu Dhabi
I created this piece in response to NYU and it’s contractors’ handling of the workers crisis in Abu Dhabi. Nordello had issued a statement defending itself from accusations - I configured a projector, car battery, and rotary encoder to project the words from the statement onto the floor of the university. As I walked, the text scrolled, making it seem like it was being revealed or unearthed as I moved along.
