With Karen Kanan Correa at the Millay Society


During my residency at the Millay Colony for the Arts, I found a abandoned swimming pool which was once Edna St. Vincent Millay's. In the ruin of her swimming pool where she had asked everybody to be naked, there was a secluded society of thousands of frogs, true bugs, newts and a snake surrounded by 7 feet tall concrete walls. The society was totally self sustainable without any possibility for them to get out. So, I decided to give them the choice for freedom, which might be totally unnecessary.
