My metaphorical connection to the site of my integration is a visual inquiry of the concentrated or limited areas of smoking on campus. Over the last decade, smoking has become more and more limited in its geographic scope. People can no longer smoke in bars or other businesses. Most parks are also off limits. On campus, smoking is limited to a handful of areas. Obviously, people can smoke where ever they want. This is just a social construct that limits the smoking to these sites.
I have chosen one smoking area on campus and am going to perform an interpretive dance while dressed as a cloud of smoke to explore and define the limits of the smoking area. I will explore the outer edges of the area in a mime-like fashion. I will demonstrate frustration about my space limitations. I will also beckon people to enter the area.
