Fujiko Nakaya: Veil. Fog Installation at The Glass House

Fujiko Nakaya: Veil is a site-specific installation that enters into dialog with the Glass House, the iconic building that was designed American architect Philip Johnson and completed in 1949. The Japanese artist Fujiko Nakaya is known for her fog sculptures and environments. With Veil, she wraps the Glass House in a veil of dense mist that comes and goes, hiding the Glass House, and making it visible again. Inside the house, the fog seems to turn the huge glass plates of the structure into white walls, producing an opaque atmosphere in the otherwise extremely transparent building. Visitors can make this experience for approximately 10 to 15 minutes each hour, until November 30, 2014. Fujiko Nakaya: Veil coincides with the 65th anniversary of the Glass House and its 2014 tour season. It's the first site-specific artist project to engage the iconic Glass House itself. For the installation, Fujiko Nakaya uses water that is pumped at high pressure through 600 nozzles installed on three sides of the Glass House. The fog that is created by this installation makes the wind and the air streams visible, which surround the Glass House. As Nakaya explains: "Fog responds constantly to its own surroundings, revealing and concealing the features of the environment. Fog makes visible things become invisible and invisible things — like wind — become visible."

“Mala” Migrant Domestic Workers in Lebanon

Vimeo

Lebanon is home to over 250,000 migrant domestic workers (MDWs), who come from African and Asian countries and work in private households. The vast majority of these workers are women. Migrant domestic workers in Lebanon are trapped in a web woven by the kafala system, an inherently abusive migration sponsorship system, which increases their risk of suffering labour exploitation, forced labour and trafficking and leaves them with little prospect of obtaining redress. All migrant domestic workers are excluded from the Lebanese Labour Law and are governed instead by the kafala system, which ties the legal residency of the worker to the contractual relationship with the employer. This video is part of a campaign that demands that Lebanon extend labour protections to migrant domestic workers.
