I had the first public showing of my Lalita installation at Herbst Pavilion, Fort Mason in San Francisco last week as part of San Francisco Art Institute's graduating MFA show. It was a great experience to build a room and deal with all the technical details for a two-channel HD video projection. (Thanks a million to musicians-turned-builders Jorrit Dijkstra and Matthias Bossi for the help!) I also had the opportunity to show the piece to artist Nalini Malani, who was receiving an honorary doctorate from SFAI, and Johan Pijnappel, a Dutch curator living in Mumbai and specializing in Asian video and new media art.
