This is an exhibition proposal for Palmer Commons. I am in the process of building a medium-scale architectural piece that I think would fit and function well in the Windows Room on the third floor. The installation is in partial fulfillment of my work towards the MFA degree in the School of Art & Design. A reception may be planned to celebrate the installation/opening.

Its approximate dimensions are 12′ L x 8′ W x 10′ H.
Its weight is between 250-500 lbs.
My thought is that the piece could sit in the 16′ space between the two central pillars closest to the windows facing Washtenaw in the Windows room–extending slightly (approx 8 ft from the center of the pillars) into the central space. As such it would be visible and attractive to passers-by. Electrical outlets are the only input needed, and I’ve noted the multiple outlets at the bases of the pillars.
I am expecting to complete the piece by the end of February with proposed installation in mid-March. How long the piece is installed is negotiable-though my aim is three-four weeks.
Please let me know what I can do to make this work out. My contact is available in the right-hand side column. I’ve already contacted and communicated with Mr. Barcena, and if possible, I’d like to arrange a time to meet to discuss the matter as soon as you are available.
