Scream Now Inside/Out

Different iterations of the project screaming booth have been presented on Governors Island, NY from 2020 to 2023.

ScreamNow : Inside/Out evolved to reflect the social distancing and deeply transformative of the COVID times. The set up expanded in space with a studio, adding the concept of Inside/Out to the project’s original purpose of offering a sanctuary for people to scream their heart out.

The screams from inside each of us are released outside in nature, shielded by the open booth structure. Recorded via a microphone in the booth, the screams are processed inside of the studio. Flower petals picked from the outside world are covering the walls of the studio where the recorded screams are transformed into visuals and projected back outside onto the booth.

The screamer instantly sees the visuals empowering her voice.
