1985, Kingston Gallery, Boston, MA

Scrim, a translucent cloth, forms physical barriers while allowing light to penetrate. In this environment, suspended floor-to-ceiling walls of scrim create rooms and corridors, lit by bare incandescent bulbs. The piece focuses attention on viewers' shifting perceptions as they move through the space.

Materials: Scrim, aluminum pipe, wire, lights
Dimensions: 12’ H x 35’ W x 35’ L

[Galston’s] results are marvelous: spaces that breathe, perspectives which open and close, solid walls which become immaterial, and light which becomes substantial. And when her magical space becomes populated by actors unconscious of their roles, a wonderful theater occurs as if in a dream. — Art New England
