How do you blend in? How do you stand out? There can be an ambivalence between the desire to blend in, both for emotional and physical security, and a desire to be noticed and stand out as unique in the crowd. A group of performers will walk the catwalk of 14th St. wearing city “uniforms” such as business suits, work coveralls, scrubs, and office wear printed with a digital camouflage design derived from the colors and texture of the city streets. The will begin from separate points on 14th Street and “commute” to 9th Avenue where they will pause and blend, creating different groupings to emphasize the camouflage nature of the clothing and create a focal point for the piece. They will then separate again.
