Karaoke Spiritual Center of Love was a site specific installation for the In Practice: Another Echo exhibition curated by Allie Tepper at Sculpture Center, Queens, NY, 2018In this show, a dropped ceiling sculpture called [Feat.] accompanies the room. Two entrances were made available, the main entrance which was at my waist line, making you have to duck under to enter. The second was in the back of the room and was ADA approved. The dropped ceiling, seen in this photo helped create an acoustic womb for the visitors. The custom lounge unit shaped with eight unique seating panels were made from pleather, my underwear, and mass produced prayer rugs, lined with LED lighting and built in sub woofers for the sound of the karaoke songs. These Seats were designed for the site at the Sculpture Center.Fourteen unique karaoke videos were made, tracks chosen came from mostly Caribbean and South Asian pop stars. The videos made for the songs captured the original Acoustic Sound Blanket suit performed in the location of a Richard Serra sculpture placed outside of The Fort Worth Modern, a contemporary and modern art museum in Ft. Worth, Texas. As a child I grew up in the triplex of Dallas, Ft. Worth, and Denton, witnessing many modern art buildings and sculptures placed, and then there was me - in these videos I am seen under my blanket fighting and loving Richard Serra. The music chosen is in the nature of soldering and fighting for one’s existence, with love.As one enters the room, ducking under to get in, if seated you must endure the shake, and the booty quake, of the sub-woofers placed inside the lounge unit, the cabinets. The tops of the cabinets eventually come off and are later placed on walls.

Fourteen unique karaoke videos were made, tracks chosen came from mostly Caribbean and South Asian pop stars.
