It is
small. The exhibit is a room in a walk-up apartment.
People lived in the apartment for 50 years.
Now it’s
been vacant for 50 years.
The
room is drunk with mood. It didn’t need
anything, so we did very little. Posted some
lyric, added a bit of structure and texture.
In the end, we decided to include a couple
of photographs and a painting.
The Observer will
sense something familiar in the room. The difficulty
will be in remembering: Does the familiarity
result from an event that occurred in Waking
Life, or was it in Dreaming Life?
About
the title, it means nothing. Walk Like An Egyptian
was a catchy little pop tune from the 80’s… fun stuff.
The word “Egyptian” evokes mystery.
And that’s how the exhibit is intended:
equal parts of mystery and fun.
