IAOS Update: Tavares Strachan

Below are some shots documenting the progress of Tavares Strachan's piece on the third floor. It's hard to believe that this is the same space that housed Anita Dube's Five Words during INDIA: New Installations, Part II.

For Tavares' piece, an area of the third floor is being converted into a diorama of a desolate, dark planet on which a robot will traverse the surface. Museum visitors will be able to control the robot from a remote location outside of the building.
