SITUATION ROOM PROCESS

The Situation Room was developed during the participatory research phase of the performance Unexploded Ordnances (UXO).

This project sought to privilege elder voices, and to address anxiety and unexpressed desire in a public forum. This research took place in the context of four international elder residencies.
