Pale Blue Dot is a photograph of planet Earth taken on February 14, 1990. One night while staying at Ace Hotel in LA for work, I was thinking about it and decided to turn my room into a small one-day only exhibition in honor of the photo. I did so using only materials found in-room, with two exceptions. One, the leaf was actually found outside my room on the window ledge of the 10th floor. Second, I borrowed a projector from the hotel to shoot onto the window curtain. Two aspects of the installation are not documented here: a sound recording of the hotel room’s key-lock “beep” slowed down 400% and the room temperature, which was set to be very cold.
