Fear, 1986 , Hardesty's studio at P.S. 1
Artist removed the door to his studio and inserted acrylic
sheet. The panel was backlit with two 650-watt halogen lights,
differently colored with gels. Without reflections or shadows,
doorway appears as a hole, not a surface. Gold-leafed speaker
with word "Fear" whispered over and over in artist's
voice appears to float. (Sandrra Cundiff at lower right.)
