Street is a shiny, textured, thin foil square made of smaller squares. The foil is silvery and reflective, and the combination of four distinct patterns into one creates a varied surface of bumps, domes, crinkles, lines, and letters. The patterns emerge from my rubbings of the bright yellow truncated domes and parallel lines carved into concrete that signal street crossings. Applying varied pressure into each foil sheet against firm surfaces molded its form into signals of navigation and safety. “Street” grounds the the Depth Perception tryptic and also can stand alone. On this page, you’ll find an audio description (56 seconds), plus three photos (with alt text) that include one close up of the textured panels, a photo of “Street” on display at Ruth’s Table along with “Shades” (Depth Perception, Part 2), and an artist photo in the process of making a foil rubbing on the street.
