The Dumbo Arts Festival is happy to announce the inclusion of Anne Percoco’s installation piece “Canopy.”
“Canopy” is a functional sleeping bag and pillow sewn out of cloth leaves cut from botanical-print fabrics. From a distance, the sleeping bag will appear to be a messy, beautiful pile of leaves.
During the festival, visitors will be invited to nap in the sleeping bag in the
Brooklyn Bridge Park or the Empire-Fulton Ferry State Park. In this way,
participants will activate the sculpture. They will have the opportunity to rest, camouflaged, in the midst of the festival’s activity.
