HIGH WALL
On the High Wall: Otts Bolisay, Tony Ortega, and Samantha Manion-Chavez
ABOUT
The High Wall is an outdoor video projection project at the Inscape Arts Building. Honoring the building’s complicated history as an immigration station, the High Wall aims to show the work of artists who are immigrants or working with themes of immigration and diaspora. Located on the south-west exterior of the Inscape building, projections are best viewed after dark from the porches or parking lots of the Inscape building, the PFI Parking lot, and both north- and south- bound light rail trains, as well as all levels of the Lumen Field parking garage. During exhibitions, members of the public are welcome to a reception on the second floor south porch of the building as darkness falls. Most exhibitions also include printed interviews with participating artists; documentation is shared here online.
Special thanks to the Wing Luke Museum.
