Itinerant Goods reflects on the plaid plastic bag's economic, social, and cultural significance in an installation at Soapbox Gallery. Commonly found in Brooklyn dollar and grocery stores, these bags are lugged through the streets, laundry mats, and subways of the city. At Soapbox Gallery the re-invented sewn plaid bags, hung on wallpaper of the same material, bear resemblance to commodities ordered and displayed in the compact spaces of markets and street stalls. The installation imagines new space and forms for red, white and blue plaid bags while inviting reflection on rituals of everyday consumption, mobility, and lifestyle in the urban landscape.
