"Don't Tell Me I Can't Fly", the semi-biographical story of African American collage artist, Della Wells' childhood. Taking inspiration from the artist's work, I created an interactive mosaic that displayed various touchtones of the play. Red was a major influence and color in the show and that is reflected in the design--it is the "opposite of subdued". One projector was bounced off of a mirror to maximize the limited space backstage.
