An installation for the 2021 Seattle Design Festival, "Vacant Seattle", encouraged visitors to take a critical look at Seattle, post-pandemic. The installation’s circular form offered two distinct modes of interaction to festival-goers over two days: On the inside, visitors used stickers across a map of Seattle to flag specific things that were missing in the neighborhoods where they live, work and play. On the outside, they could write broader messages to the city. The structure was subsequently exhibited at the University of Washington’s Jacob Lawrence Gallery.
