The Manhattan Tartan Project, Phase I and II 1999-2001
wool, statistical data

Employing demographic data, the artists developed a system to visually describe the population of Manhattan. The resulting tartan was registered officially in Scotland, woven and made into garments. This project explores our need to belong to a group and display that affiliation.
