ball nogues studio: tablecloth

the table cloth is comprised of 268 tables and stools linked together collectively to create a ‘fabric’ that hangs from a steel beam on the east wall of the courtyard. when the table cloth meets the ground, it unrolls to form an intimate ‘in the round’ performance area. visitors can sit on the tables and stools within this area. because of the work’s size and the materials used, its presence within the space will help reduce reverberation and alter acoustical phenomena within the space.
