10 – 12 June 2011 | 10am – 6pm | Governors Island NYC | Figment Festival
Caitlin Berrigan will present a new work for Governors Island. For the duration of the Figment Festival, she will enact a pathetic political gesture—circling around the perimeter of the island, endlessly declaring ‘Victory’ in an evaporating medium.
Victory Gardening was commissioned by Kleio Projects for The Purposeful Garden including work by artists Fabian Grateroles, Anne Percoco, Junko Sugimoto, and Mosstika.
For details on the festival and how to get to the island, please visit http://newyork.figmentproject.org. *Weather permitting*
Victory Gardening was produced during an invitational residency at The Wassaic Project, and made possible with the gracious assistance of Francis Rabkin, Janine Iversen, Storm Garner, Gina Siepel and Meredith Jenks.
