86,617 feet of acrylic yarn, plexiglas, audience

10.9.10-10.28.10

Curtis crocheted hour every day for year; tying yarn together from 36 large skeins so continuous. Starting October 9, participants removed yarn from form, placing undone yarn into plexiglas box. Installation was complete once “undone” or once biennial ended at 5pm, October 28–whichever came first. (form at start of exhibit: .25″x108″x864″; plexiglas box: 16″x16″x84″)
