The Pedestrian Project

pedestrian project1 The Pedestrian Project

The Pedestrian Project consists of several performers wearing entirely black custom-made costumes modeled after the generic images of men, women, and children seen on public signs. Mimicking the lives of everyday people, the roaming sculptural forms inspire the imaginations of onlookers, who often find themselves mesmerized as these familiar icons assume busy lives of their own. Created by New Yorker Artist/Costume Designer Yvette Helin, this idea is just Genius !

    This has been done before – about 8 years ago in a music video for the band The Beautiful South. Not an original idea.
