Thank you Christina Heintzelman for this really nice piece with many photos about Cocoon in the Harrisburg Magazine.
Christina’s article came about because I’m currently working on a Cocoon, The Migrations of Many, for Steelton, PA. The Steelton steel plant is one of three rail producers in the Americas. I’ve partnered with the 1688 Local USW Union and have been interviewing residents and past and present steelworkers from the Steelton mill and Eric Etheridge has been taking formal portraits. The performance installation will happened in Fall 2023 in Steelton and then go to SAM in 2024 for their spring exhibition.
