Don't Mess With My Fro

May 17, 2003
Location: Hyde Park Art Center

'Don't Mess With My Fro' designed by youth Davion Mathews and Brain Radcliffe with the Stockyard Institute captured the language of the street with cinematic references about ones sense of their own space. Taxi had its debut performance in Chicago in 2003. With the assistance of location sensitive signage equipment mounted on the roof of a taxicab, the work presented flash-animated messages keyed to particular sites as the taxi moves throughout the city.
