Site-specific installation
Sudbury, MA

The latest iteration of James Leonard and Molly Gallentine’s T-Shirt Shop at the End of Civilization. Building off last year’s installation of this project in an abandoned cathedral in Hoboken, NJ, this version places the project in a three story barn on an 18th century farmstead in Sudbury, MA. The installation is accompanied by a series of public events including dance performances, a long table dinner, and readings from a curated selection of authors.
